Technical

These documents contain more details about the internals of GitHub Desktop and how things work:

  • Dialogs - details about the dialog component API
  • Windows menu bar - Electron doesn't provide inbuilt support for styling the menu for Windows, so we've created our own custom components to achieve this.
  • Developer OAuth App - GitHub Desktop ships with the ability to OAuth on behalf of a user. A developer OAuth app is bundled to reduce the friction of getting started.
  • Building and Packaging Desktop - Outlines how Desktop is currently packaged for all platforms
  • Automatic Git Proxy support - A pre-launch overview and troubleshooting guide for the Git automatic proxy support in GitHub Desktop.
