Linking selenium with electron framework (c#)

Question

I've already written few lines of code in C# using Selenium webdriver. As my application was transferred to the Electron framework everything has changed and honestly, I don't know how to cope with it right now.

Could you please clarify it to me? What steps should I take to simple start... I would like to continue my work in the current project (selenium, C#), but I'm not sure that it's possible, or I should completely start from scratch using a different language and framework?

I've read about Spectron, and checked the internet resources like stackoverflow, however I'm still in the point of unawareness...

You should try ketlon studio to autome if you are starting from scratch .. it really easy n cool — Ankur Singh, Jul 02 '18 at 13:43
@CoreyGoldberg you are correct but electron app runs on its own chromedriver.so,with some capability added we automate electron app too.But spectron is most suitable. — Bharath Kumar S, Jul 07 '18 at 03:51

Spectron with mocha is supposed to be faster.

But still here is what you need.This is Java & Selenium.

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\electron-chromedriver\\bin\\chromedriver.exe");
ChromeOptions chromeOptions = new ChromeOptions();
chromeOptions.setBinary("C:\\Users\\app.exe");
chromeOptions.addArguments("start-maximized");
DesiredCapabilities capability = new DesiredCapabilities();
capability.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, "Chrome");
capability.setCapability("chromeOptions", chromeOptions);       
driver = new ChromeDriver(chromeOptions);

I have used the packaged electron app for binary (i.e) app.exe .

I think this is what you need.
