My Electron application description

Trying electron-forge and electron-builder

This is from https://www.electronjs.org/docs/tutorial/quick-start

Installed electron-builder:

npm i -D electron-builer

Use electron-builder:

• This one works
• puts the output in /dist/

npm run dist

Use electron-forge:

• Doesn't create a dmg file
• puts the output in /out/

npm run make

---

Package things

$ npm run dist

develop locally

$ npm run tron

---

Electron doesn't really have routes, but the routes work in here because we listen for 'click' events and get the href from the link address

my-app's Issues

You asked in electron builder

my-app/.github/workflows/build.yml

Line 11 in 7a330b9

os: [macos-latest, ubuntu-latest, windows-latest]

Should be big Os in mac
os: [macOs-latest, ubuntu-latest, windows-latest]

Its recommended to use V2 rather than v1

• name: Check out Git repository
  uses: actions/checkout@v2

Change this to something like GH_TOKEN You cant use github as a env name
github_token: ${{ secrets.github_token }}

This wont work for a couple of reasons, for me to get this to work i instead changed it to true
release: ${{ startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags/v') }}

release: true

Then if i really want to only build when a new tag has been commited i'll set that in the top section

on: push: tags: # Build on every tag in the form v1.2.3-something.4 - 'v*'
