Improve installation process #67

Closed davesnx closed 5 years ago

davesnx commented 7 years ago

Hello @wellsjo

I think that isn't the most comfortable way of installing an application the current workflow and we can improve it.

Using something like: electron-packager Allow more users to install the App.

What do you think?

wellsjo commented 7 years ago

Hey @davesnx, we are actually using electron-packager to build from npm scripts: https://github.com/wellsjo/JSON-Splora/blob/master/package.json#L19-L21

How can we improve this?

davesnx commented 7 years ago

I mean, that I wanted to install the App with a wizard, not from console. @wellsjo

wellsjo commented 7 years ago

Oh yeah, that would be awesome! I'm definitely interested in providing that install process. electron-packager can do that? @davesnx

davesnx commented 7 years ago

Nope @wellsjo 😢

wellsjo commented 7 years ago

Ah okay. Honestly I don't know how to do that. I'll update this issue to "improve installation process" and leave it up to whoever knows how 😄

davesnx commented 7 years ago

I saw a lot of people using electron-builder

👍

wellsjo commented 7 years ago

Ahh, I see, nice. We can definitely go this route.
