REPL

Read-Eval-Print-Loop (REPL) is a simple, interactive computer programming environment that takes single user inputs (i.e. single expressions), evaluates them, and returns the result to the user.

The repl module provides REPL implementation that can be accessed using:

• Assuming you have electron or electron-prebuilt installed as a local project dependency:

  ./node_modules/.bin/electron --interactive
  

• Assuming you have electron or electron-prebuilt installed globally:

  electron --interactive
