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.
