Build Instructions

If you decide to fork a copy of the news client for your own uses, here are the steps to build it!

1. Ensure you have angular-cli & electron installed globally. If you need to install it, run npm install -g @angular/cli and npm install -g electron.
2. Clone this repo to your local machine.
3. cd into the repo and run npm install to install the required dependencies.
4. Run npm run build-mac to build the angular app and have electron-packager make a release-build for the application.
5. Run npm run create-mac-installer to use the release-builds directory created in the previous step to create an installer for Mac.
6. Find your newly created .dmg file and install your new application!

Installation

You can find the installation file available for download from my portfolio at the bottom (sorry!). Currently it is only available for Mac with a Windows installer hopefully coming in the near future.
