Deprecate usage of electron-packager #348

Open

Description

@SimulatedGREG

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.
