Testing, compiling, and creation notes
First things first here’s the repo.
To clone and run this repository you’ll need Node.js (which comes with npm) installed on your computer. From your command line:
# Install dependencies
npm install
# Run the app
npm start
Supports compiling via electron packager. Install and run it with:
npm install --save-dev electron-packager
npm run make
Keep in mind you also need a copy of the WINE project and need to be on Linux.
A basic Electron application needs just these files:
package.json- Points to the app’s main file and lists its details and dependencies.main.js- Starts the app and creates a browser window to render HTML. This is the app’s main process.index.html- A web page to render. This is the app’s renderer process.preload.js- A content script that runs before the renderer process loads.

What is Privacy Redirection Technology (PRT)?
This is a simple technology that replaces a bad URL with a more privacy friendly service, when we know that ADs aren’t 100% blocked, or just to provide a better UX. TLDR: Clickjacking for the greater good.
