you can use this boilerplate to get start a new project with react and electron. Your build HTML file will act as the view file for your electron app.Which should be build by react-scripts.Use express server in separate file and use the server. Handle requests just like you do in a MERN app.you only need to set the view to the bundled HTML file.
