Hi there! This change adds the repository property to your package.json file(s). Having this available provides a number of benefits to security tooling. For example, it allows for greater trust by checking for signed commits, contributors to a release and validating history with the project. It also allows for comparison between the source code and the published artifact in order to detect attacks on authors during the publication process. We validate that we're making a PR against the correct repository by comparing the metadata for the published artifact on [npmjs.com](www.npmjs.com) against the metadata in the package.json file in the repository. This change is provided by a team at Microsoft -- we're happy to answer any questions you may have. (Members of this team include [@s-tuli](https://github.com/s-tuli), [@iarna](https://github.com/iarna), [@rancyr](https://github.com/v-rr), [@Jaydon Peng](https://github.com/v-jiepeng), [@Zhongpeng Zhou](https://github.com/v-zhzhou) and [@Jingying Gu](https://github.com/v-gjy)). If you would prefer that we not make these sorts of PRs to projects you maintain, please just say. If you'd like to learn more about what we're doing here, we've prepared a document talking about both this project and some of our other activities around supply chain security here: [microsoft/Secure-Supply-Chain](https://github.com/microsoft/Secure-Supply-Chain) This PR provides repository metadata for the following packages: * @electron/universal
@electron/universal
Create universal macOS Electron applications
Usage
import { makeUniversalApp } from '@electron/universal';
await makeUniversalApp({
x64AppPath: 'path/to/App_x64.app',
arm64AppPath: 'path/to/App_arm64.app',
outAppPath: 'path/to/App_universal.app',
});
FAQ
The app is twice as big now, why?
Well, a Universal app isn't anything magical. It is literally the x64 app and the arm64 app glued together into a single application. It's twice as big because it contains two apps in one.
What about native modules?
The way @electron/universal works today means you don't need to worry about
things like building universal versions of your native modules. As long as
your x64 and arm64 apps work in isolation the Universal app will work as well.
