As there is no too much information in the readme.md in how is this made, I think put a link of Electron and React to have an idea of the technologies used here is a good starter.
What is WebTorrent, LLC?
WebTorrent, LLC is the legal entity that runs the WebTorrent project.
WebTorrent is still, and always will be, non-profit, open source, free
software.
There are no plans to make a profit from WebTorrent.
* packager: call callbacks consistently
Before this, the callbacks would not being called, which would lead to
an incomplete build on non-OS X platforms when trying to build all for
all platforms.
* packager: Always produce OS X update file regardless of --package option
This makes it consistent with how the windows build always produces the
.nupkg autoupdate files
* packager: fix duplicate npm install
Move "npm prune && npm dedupe" into the release script. Remove an extra
"npm install"
* Make Windows portable app
When a folder named "Portable Settings" exists in same folder as
WebTorrent.exe, then use it instead of the default application config
path.
Closes#358
* packager: remove redundant signing warning
* cross platform zip function
* Set config file path to match config.CONFIG_PATH
* portable app: make electron settings portable
* portable: fix poster/torrent paths
* use cross-zip
* portable app: default download folder inside 'Portable Settings'
* Many packager improvements; Windows signing!
* Windows signing works now! (Certs are on an external USB stick that
must be plugged into the build machine during build. We can't do the
same for OS X because certs need to exist in the login Keychain to be
found.)
Fixes#219
* Signing is now optional (so OS X and Windows contributors can run
`npm run package` without errors)
* zip, dmg, and deb arguments are now passed in as e.g. "--package=dmg"
* Print a huge warning when signing is disabled so we're less likely to
ship unsigned binaries to users.
* Make console.logs during packaging consistent and parallel
("creating..." followed by "created.")
* More aggressive signing warnings
* Warn when building OS X app on non-OS X platform (because signing
will never work on non-OS X platforms)
* Warn when building Windows app on non-Windows platform (because
signing doesn't work yet on non-Windows platforms)
