Development

Quick Start

You need to have NodeJS and a package manager such as Yarn installed. Then run the following commands to get started:

1. Run yarn install to install or update all necessary dependencies.
2. Run yarn dev to build the project files to the /build directory. This will keep running to immediately build changed files when they are updated.
3. In a second terminal, run yarn start to start the application. Refresh the window (Ctrl/Cmd + R) after modifying a file to load the updated build files.

Release Build

An installable executable can be built using yarn package for your platform in the /dist folder. The building is performed using the electron-builder package, and is configured by a section in the package.json file. Builds are automatically published to Github Releases when a tag is created in GitHub.
