Question

main.js

const {app, BrowserWindow} = require(\'electron\')
const path = require(\'path\')
const url = require(\'ur         


        

Answer 1

I managed to reduce the final size of my mac app from 250MB to 128MB by moving 'electron' and my reactJs dependencies to devDependencies in package.json ... since all I need is going to be in the final bundle.js

But sadly I couldn't get it any lower than that because the electron framework is 118MB which is something if you're making a small app, but I guess that's the price to pay for making cross-platform web apps
