Development
Project's folders
app- code of your application goes here.config- place for you to declare environment specific stuff.build- in this folder lands built, runnable application.releases- ready for distribution installers will land here.resources- resources for particular operating system.tasks- build and development environment scripts.
Installation
npm install
It will also download Electron runtime, and install dependencies for second package.json file inside app folder.
Starting the app
npm start
Making a release
To make ready for distribution installer use command:
npm run release
It will start the packaging process for the operating system you are running this command on. The file which is ready for distribution will be outputted to releases directory.
You can create Windows installer only when running on Windows, the same is true for Linux and OSX. So to generate all three installers you need all three operating systems.
