BoostNote-App VS electron-builder

here are a few others you could check: * Amplenote * Boostnote * Zoho Notebook * Google Keep

The "legacy application" is still available, but these are the new pricing plans for the maintained version

Boostnote has real-time collaboration but it's unclear if you can self-host the markdown files. I think no.

you can check out this page https://alternativeto.net/software/joplin/?platform=online but the best I could find are - https://www.taskade.com/ https://standardnotes.com/ https://notesnook.com/ https://bundlednotes.com/ https://diaroapp.com/ https://notabase.io/ https://boostnote.io/ etc.

Boostnote. Free open-source code notebook. I write all my coding notes in it. Supports most languages and markdown. It's been a life saver for me.

I use boost note

I didnt solve your problem directly, but indirectly. The devs have set the wrong dependency, I guess the build is either too old or intended for Fedora(?). Normally, libuuid1 is provided and on OpenSuse theres no way to change that to libuuid. However, you may just use this: https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote-App/releases/latest/download/boost-note-linux.AppImage

A quick google search gives me Boost Note and Notejoy. Might be worth a try?

The last step for each platform's build process is to upload the app to our GitHub releases repository. We automated this step from the beginning, but when we started creating builds for the new M1 chip Macs, we had to add a manual step. This involved merging files needed for the auto-updater to work with the M1 builds.

https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/issues... that issue kinks to the PR that adds the automation.

It's a non-trivial thing to test, since it involves so many secrets and the notarization step can take over an hour, so I don't expect anyone here to actually want to look into it.

My original comment really was just venting my frustration, not a cry for help (but I might be crying soon if I can get to the bottom of this!).

Well, yes. And no.

For example, electron-builder [^0], a popular framework used for Electron app packaging and auto-updates, uses a local update server on Mac [^1] to add a more sane system backed by a more insane system, Squirrel.

The Project uses Electorn-Builder to package the app and Electorn-Updater to update.

Ostara is based off of electron-react-boilerplate and uses electron-builder to package the application.

Install electron and electron-builder

I believe Visual Studio Code uses Electron and posts releases on a regular basis. Maybe check their A quick Google search for "electron build github release" turns up "Electron Builder" https://www.electron.build/ I don't really know though; I've never used Electron.

I also would like to have an NSIS installer so if it happens to package the Chromium executable along with my app, how can I accomplish that? I am using electron-builder.

We use electron-builder at work.
