title: Ionic 3 - use electron's 'child_process'
body: <p>I am building a desktop application in which i want to open external application from my app. I'm using electron's <code>child_process</code> for performing this operation. But I'm stuck in how to import <code>child_process</code> on TypeScript file.</p>
  
  <p>I tried to use <code>require('child_process').exec</code> and <code>System.import('child_process').exec</code> but it is throwing error "Can't find module 'child_process'.</p>
  
  <p>But when i use it on <code>index.html</code> in <code>&lt;script&gt;</code> it works properly!</p>
  
  <p>I got this solution <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/36549645/7088848">here</a>. But it is working with SystemJS. But my project is not configured with SystemJS.</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!</p>
