Use Exolve and Exet in GitHub Desktop #20

Closed ballantynedewolf closed 2 years ago

I may be being dumb here, but I can keep both apps up to date using GitHub Desktop but it seems I need to have all the html files for both in one folder for exet to work, otherwise it throws an error that it can't define exolve. Could the define exolve step maybe check for the exolve files in a sibling folder if they aren't in the same folder?

Are you on a unix/linux platform by any chance? I am, and in my own set-up, I have used symbolic links. So, from the exolve directory, assuming the exet directory is a peer:

ln -s exolve-m.{css,js} ../exet/

A quick web search tell me that you can do something similar on Windows using mklink: https://blogs.windows.com/windowsdeveloper/2016/12/02/symlinks-windows-10/
