How can I change the splash screen image?

The documentation is not clear about that but first be sure your new image is a bitmap with 24bit and nonzero resolution. Check this thread, it gives you tools to convert your .bmp image to 24bit file. I tried with Paint it worked.

Then you can find electron.bmp file in assets/icons folder.

Two way to replace the splash image :

• Replace the current file by yours while keeping the same name.
• Add your .bmp image in this folder, then replace electron.bmp with your file name in the file electron-builder.json you mentionned.

Finally don't forget to run npm run electron:build to apply changes on your app.

change src/assets/background.jpg?

I tried changing that image (it's a bmp) and nothing is shown during the startup

Edit: I don't want to change the background, but the "Electron is loading" splash screen
