@gersonfa for the code above to work, change line 27:
mainWindow.loadUrl("data:text/html;charset=utf-8," + encodeURI(html));
It should be:
mainWindow.loadURL("data:text/html;charset=utf-8," + encodeURI(html));
@dannix, but how to force electron to load scripts? Let's say if your dynamic html contains <script src="./index.js"></script>

Didn't work for me, doesn't load anything. Is there any other way to load dynamic html in a new window?
