## Installation

```sh
npm install
```


### Run for Development

Runs a local copy of Electron (via electron-prebuilt), rendering the app with Live-Reload / [HMR] via [webpack-dev-server].

> **Note:** you may need to reload _(Cmd/Ctrl + R)_ after the initial Webpack build completes.

```sh
npm start
```


### Build

To build the app for OS X, Linux, and Windows, using [electron-packager]:

```sh
npm run build
```


### Platform-Specific Builds

You can also build the codebase, and then package it only for a given platform:

```sh
# build the electron & web source:
npm run build:all

# generate the package for your platform(s):
npm run build:electron:osx
npm run build:electron:linux
npm run build:electron:win
```
