Development

Use Windows PowerShell or cmd for install, dev, test, and build.

WSL is fine for editing, but this repo intentionally blocks install/dev/build/test commands in WSL.

pnpm install

Start desktop app

pnpm dev

This starts:

• Vite renderer
• Electron desktop shell

pnpm test

CI

GitHub Actions runs the Windows build pipeline from .github/workflows/build.yml:

• pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
• pnpm typecheck
• pnpm test
• pnpm build

Notes

• If you previously mixed Windows and WSL installs, delete node_modules and reinstall from Windows.
• Electron is now the only desktop runtime target in this repository.
