FalixNodes Desktop was developed by Korbs Studio, a FalixNodes Limited contractor. It was intended for its desktop customers to use FalixNodes more quickly and conveniently by allowing them to easily access both the client and game panels presented by FalixNodes. The capabilities of how the software works have progressed over time, and improved performance and security practices have been put in place to make the customer experience more efficient and trustworthy.
This is a bit of a disappointed, as some major features were being applied to v4 of FalixNodes Desktop, which remained in development for way over a year and never reached production. This forth major version was suppose to get amazing features like built-in SFTP manager, VPN(This was drop either way, requested by FalixNodes Limited CEO), better system optimizations, and a command menu. One of the feature did that come to light and was finished during the development phase was the command menu powered by Ninja Keys.

> Final thoughts from the developer: I've enjoyed creating and making updates to both FalixNodes Desktop and FalixNodes App for desktop and mobile over the years for the company, it's sad to sunset these apps, but I don't have time anymore for these and no longer movivation to continue forward. Thanks to FalixNodes Desktop, I've gained a lot more experience and knowledge in the ElectronJS framework and how to work in it, and create amazing things; and thanks to FalixNodes app which allowed me to learn about mobile development using a framework like React Native and getting to know the workflow behind Expo. While I'm not going to be working on our applications anymore, I will still be working at FalixNodes Limited as our website developer for our homepage.
Well, it's come to my attention after many emails from other companies, even after being discontinued, they have forked the project and are using this for their customers. So, I created this template for them and for more to come, as I don't want these companies using outdated source code.
So, here is Nexus Polestar, a template they can build their desktop app on top of for their customers, to replace the old source code from FalixNodes Desktop.
While FalixNodes Desktop has always been constructed using vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, as well as primitive code from 4 years ago and older to still navigate and add additionalsettings, Nexus Polestar will be developed with Astro, as well as SCSS and more modernized scripts for features such as navigating and additionalsettings.
> If you're using Windows, please be using Windows 10 or Windows 11. Windows 8.1 or older are not supported by Korbs Studio and Nexus Polestar, older versions may be able to run the application but may run into some issues along the way.
The `yarn start` command will it in development mode, in this mode, Electron will load a URL instead which is `localhost:3000`. This will not be the case in production mode for security purposes.
This URL won't load up right away by Astro, wait a few moments, then press `Ctrl` + `R` in the app.
If you are having issues with the template, you can either submit an [issue](https://code.korbsstudio.com/KorbsStudio/nexus-polestar/-/issues) or [contact Korbs Studio by email](mailto:support@korbsstudio.com).
