Difference between electron-compile and electron-prebuilt-compile #150

Closed rllola closed 7 years ago

rllola commented 8 years ago

Hello,

I am confused on what is the difference between the two modules ? I have never done electron app before. I saw the talk "Making Electron Development Simpler, More Pleasant, and More Productive - GitHub Universe 2016" talk and wanted to give a try but he talks about electron-compile and his demo he is using electron-prebuilt-compile.

@rllola electron-prebuild-compile is a wrapper around the standard electron-prebuilt with built in electron-compile hooks.

See https://github.com/electron/electron-compile#how-does-it-work-easiest-way

You can use the normal electron-prebuilt and set up the electron-compile hooks yourself if you want. Check out:
