Deployment is never been easy before, package.json is already configured for every platform (Window, Linux, MacOs, Web). Just need to run build commands for each platform as follows:

For Windows

npm run electron:package:win

For Linux

npm run electron:package:linux

For MacOS

npm run electron:package:mac

For Website

npm run build

Running these commands will give you a package file (Windows->NSIS .exe) || (Linux->.deb) || (macOS->.dmg) || for wesbite you will get the build folder where you can serve the wesbite using:

serve -s build

Demo Windows Setup

Latest release is available for desktop users to test and use the electron application, check out the latest release section and download the application for Windows x64

!!IMPORTANT NOTE!!

• For this specific app NODE core components enabled & contextIsolation are disabled which is not recommended due to security concerns. However there is no problem with this app as its not used for web browsing and also "CSP inline-scripts" policy is enabled so user can use it with confidence.

• If you enable the preload.js and disabled the node core components the persistent storage wont work.
