Building

You must have node version >=8 to build this app

1. Run yarn or npm i to install the necessary dependencies. (yarn highly recommended)

2. To build an executable run:

   yarn package
   

3. Navigate to the release folder to find the folder containing the installer.

4. Install the app like you would any other.

5. Run

To build on linux you currently have to install one of the libcurl libraries due to a strange issue causing the nodegit compilation to fail.

I have tested and confirmed libcurl4-openssl-dev to be working, the others may or may not.

To install this on ubuntu you would run sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

To Run for Development

1. Run yarn or npm i to install the necessary dependencies.

2. Run yarn run dev .

TODO
