electron-react-boilerplate VS electron-builder

For a swift and efficient setup, I began by cloning the Electron-React Boilerplate. This boilerplate provided a pre-configured combination of Electron and React, along with Redux and Webpack, setting a solid foundation for the project. This choice allowed me to focus on building the unique features of my application, leveraging the boilerplate's stable and community-tested framework.

If I had to guess I'd say roughly 110 of those are since the installer relies on Electron React Boilerplate... That's what we get for using web technologies for desktop apps (despite the fact they do not need to be cross-platform nor accessible)

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

Have a look at Electron React Boilerplate.

Im trying to install usb-detection on my electron js project using electron-react-boilerplate . I get the following error due to the post install script and cant get passed it for running or packaging the app.

I everyone. I am using Electron react boilerplate and I have successfully added tailwindcss to the project. However, I am struggling to get the Prettier plugin tailwindcss to work. I’ve tried following the instructions in the readme but no luck. I’ve tried moving my prettier.config.js to the .erc/config dir with no luck either.

I also came to recommend the erb framework since it makes getting the initial app up fairly quick and painless.

Hi guys I'm using this electron-react boilerplate https://github.com/electron-react-boilerplate/electron-react-boilerplate and I want to use sqlite3 with it. The problem is I dont have the idea on how to implement it, I've been looking online for guides to follow but it's so confusing and doesn't work. What I want is the database can be access in development and production. Any help will be appreciated thanks.

We used Electron React Boilerplate and met the lead maintainer in-person thanks to this project!

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.

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.
