closer.js

const { app } = require('electron');
const babi = function(){
    const bubu = document.querySelector('.closer');
    function bubub(){
        bubu.innerHTML = "aganim";
        app.quit();
    }
    bubu.addEventListener('click', bubub);
}
babi();

JavaScript
 
const { app } = require('electron');
const babi = function(){
    const bubu = document.querySelector('.closer');
    function bubub(){
        bubu.innerHTML = "aganim";
        app.quit();
    }
    bubu.addEventListener('click', bubub);
}
babi();
​

My problem is that clicking the button, doesn’t work. What should I do?

Answer

[...bubu].forEach(bubu => 
  bubu.addEventListener("click", bubuClose()) 
);

 function bubuClose() {
   bubu.innerHTML = "aganim";
   window.close();
 };

JavaScript
 
[...bubu].forEach(bubu => 
  bubu.addEventListener("click", bubuClose()) 
);
​
 function bubuClose() {
   bubu.innerHTML = "aganim";
   window.close();
 };
​

I think you can do it with a loop like this.
