使用 Electron Forge 分发应用

¥Distributing Apps With Electron Forge

Electron Forge 是一个用于打包和发布 Electron 应用的工具。它将 Electron 的构建工具生态系统统一到一个可扩展的界面中，以便任何人都可以直接开始制作 Electron 应用。

¥Electron Forge is a tool for packaging and publishing Electron applications. It unifies Electron's build tooling ecosystem into a single extensible interface so that anyone can jump right into making Electron apps.

Alternative tooling

如果你不想在项目中使用 Electron Forge，则可以使用其他第三方工具来分发应用。

¥If you do not want to use Electron Forge for your project, there are other third-party tools you can use to distribute your app.

这些工具由 Electron 社区成员维护，并且没有获得 Electron 项目的官方支持。

¥These tools are maintained by members of the Electron community, and do not come with official support from the Electron project.

Electron 生成器

¥Electron Builder

专注于综合体验的 "打包和构建可立即分发的 Electron 应用的完整解决方案"。electron-builder 添加单个依赖并在内部管理所有进一步的需求。
