Electron Forge
Quickly scaffold an Electron project with a full build pipeline
Présentation
Electron Forge is an all-in-one tool for packaging and distributing Electron applications. It combines many single-purpose packages to create a full build pipeline that works out of the box, complete with code signing, installers, and artifact publishing. For advanced workflows, custom build logic can be added in the Forge lifecycle through its Plugin API. Custom build and storage targets can be handled by creating your own Makers and Publishers.
When packaging your Electron app, Forge crawls your project's node_modules folder to collect dependencies to bundle. Its module resolution algorithm is naive and doesn't take into account symlinked dependencies nor Yarn's Plug'n'Play (PnP) format.
To get started with Electron Forge, we first need to initialize a new project with create-electron-app. This script is a convenient wrapper around Forge's Init command.
So you've got an amazing application there, and you want to package it all up and share it with the world. If you run the make script, Electron Forge will generate you platform specific distributables for you to share with everyone.
