Use Tofino without building electron #577

Closed CxRes closed 8 years ago

CxRes commented 8 years ago

Since prebuilt electron binaries are available for all platforms, could it be made possible to use those instead of having to build electron. This helps me avoid installing the ms toolchain on my windows machine just to get tofino to work...

We're hoping to have distributed builds soon, once we sort some stuff out with legal/licensing

I believe this is working now, using our S3 electron builds -- @bgrins @Mossop yeah?

We've never had a requirement to build electron to test tofino, however you still need a ms toolchain in order to build the sqlite module that we depend on. But yes once redistributable builds are published you can test without needing to builds tofino yourself.
