Downloads

Pre-built installers for macOS, Windows and Linux are published on the Releases page, and can also be downloaded from the project's GitHub Pages site.

Development

npm install
npm run dev          # build + launch Electron
npm run cli -- --help

Building installers locally

npm run dist:mac     # macOS (.dmg + .zip, x64 + arm64)
npm run dist:win     # Windows (NSIS + portable)
npm run dist:linux   # Linux (AppImage + deb)

Releasing

Version bumps are handled via npm scripts. They update package.json, commit, create a vX.Y.Z tag and push everything — which triggers the release workflow that builds and uploads installers to a GitHub Release.

npm run release:patch   # 1.0.0 -> 1.0.1
npm run release:minor   # 1.0.0 -> 1.1.0
npm run release:major   # 1.0.0 -> 2.0.0

CI

• Every push to master (e.g. after a PR merge) builds the app on macOS, Windows and Linux and uploads the installers as workflow artifacts.
• Every v* tag push creates a GitHub Release with installers attached.
• The docs/ folder is published to GitHub Pages on every push to master.
