Deprecate usage of electron-packager
#348
Open
Description
As electron-vue has grown over the past year, it has become apparent that the advanced usage of webpack
, asset handling, and dependency management has become too troublesome to handle with the simple setup of electron-packager
.
electron-builder
on the other hand is able to handle all of the above features and go beyond those if needed. In the end, the benefits here just don't compare to electron-packager
like they once did in the past.

Update
Currently npm@5.3.0
has an issue related to pruning dependencies, which can result in missing modules for builds. The use of the yarn
package manager is very recommended.
