Definitely not 3. My only concern with 1 is that we don’t have a prompt for unsaved work so it could be really bad UX. Just added that issue https://github.com/FormidableLabs/spectacle-editor/issues/149.

My vote is for 2 since I think that’s a little more common on OSX. On windows, I don’t know.

Note: This is lower priority than getting viewer component shippable.

Three-ish options:

  1. Quit the app completely if the main window is closed (relatively common, 10 mins of work)
  2. Update menu code to allow for the main window to be open/closed arbitrarily (~1 hour of work)
  3. Allow for multiple windows/presentations to be open (TBD hours of work)
