Asking again 'cause I havent had any luck finding this information. Does anyone know where I can find the documentation or steps to package my Electron app for Windows on a Mac running OS Catalina(10.15)? I've successfully published for DMG and and .zip for Mac OS. Using electron-forge currently.
I read the Electron documentation to use wine or mono and I installed both, but I'm not sure what to do after that. I tried running the electron-packager after installing both but it still ignores the squirrel-maker for Windows. Tried running electron-make and publish, all ignore the squirrel-maker.
I got an error once that I needed to use 'electron-compile' but when I installed it and tried using it, it kept throwing an error on my source code when it would come across a dot operator for arrays or objects? Ex:
let object = {Name:"Something"}
let object2 = {Age:20}
let newObject = {
...object,
...object2
}
Would throw an error when trying to use the 'electron-compile' framework.
Really trying to avoid flipping back and forth between Windows and Mac on my mac and having to install electron on both platforms. package.json file:
