Here are some ideas on how it can be improved using other Electron APIs.
- Double-click commodity to open directly on https://stooq.com
- Refresh automatically on an interval.
- Add the price of platinum (
PL=F
) to the app. - Export prices to a
.csv
file. - Show percentage change in price.
- Show notifications when prices go above/below certain amounts.
