Project Overview

This is an Electron application designed to open Google Gemini

Key features:

• Opens google.com on launch.
• Registers a global keyboard shortcut (WIN+SHIFT+G) to show/focus the application window.
• Minimizes to the system tray when the window is "closed" instead of quitting. Clicking the tray icon restores the window.

Tech Stack

• Electron
• Node.js
• HTML/CSS/JavaScript (though primarily interacting with an external site)

Development Environment

• Package Manager: pnpm
• Main process logic: main.js
• Preload script: preload.js (if needed for future enhancements)
• Initial HTML: index.html (serves as a placeholder before loading Google)

Important Notes for Copilot

• When modifying main.js, ensure that the tray functionality and global shortcut registration are preserved.
• The application's primary purpose is to display gemini.google.com
• Use pnpm for any package management commands.
• The main window should be created with nodeIntegration: true and contextIsolation: false if direct DOM manipulation of loaded pages is ever required (though not for the current google.com use case). For security, these are typically false and true respectively. Given we are loading an external site, we should stick to more secure defaults unless a specific feature requires otherwise.
• Ensure that paths in main.js (e.g., for index.html or icons) are correctly resolved using path.join(__dirname, ...).
