  • Target Audiences

  • This course was made for Electron developers who are looking to distribute their Electron applications.
  • Electron is a popular open source framework that allows you to build
    desktop applications using the skills you already possess as a front-end
    developer.

    In this course, we’ll go through detailed discussions
    on how to properly package, sign, and distribute Electron applications.
    We’ll start by quickly explaining how Electron applications are packaged
    under the hood, and armed with that knowledge, we’ll cover every single
    major operating system in detail by using tools that automate the whole
    process.

    Desktop application deployment is not a trivial task,
    and you might feel lost coming from a web development background. This
    course will help you navigate the sea of desktop application
    distribution by teaching you best practices, answering common concerns,
    and explaining in detail how to delegate application packaging and
    deployment to continuous integration services, so you can deploy a
    version of your application to all operating systems with a single
    command
