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:
npm install -g serve
serve -s build

!!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.
