Electron - How to drag and drop a file?
Helo,
I'm using the Electron Framework for creating a desktop application: https://electronjs.org/
I want to create a div-element, where you can drop a file and then it will be opened by javascript. So I need the complete file path. I can't achieve that. Maybe somebody has a code snippet?
Thank you!

It's more or less a portable chromium browser. Just check one of the many tutorials on how to drag&drop a file with chrome/chromium.
