説明

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I use ppc64le architecture and vanilla electron is not compatible... there are patched versions (of electron) available on some GNU/Linux distros like Void-ppc.

Describe the solution you'd like Basically adding an option to the build system that uses the distro's electron

Describe alternatives you've considered Use a precompiled version of electron on ppc64le?

Issue 種別: feature
難度: 3
推定時間: 1-3 hours
活動状況: stale
明確さ: mostly clear
前提条件: Node.jsElectronBuild system (e.g., electron builder)
初心者向け度: 50
調査方針: Examine the existing build configuration in package.json and the electron builder config. Research how other Electron apps implement a fallback to system electron (e.g., via environment variable `ELECTRON OVERRIDE DIST` or similar). Check the comment from the author for additional context. The solution likely involves modifying the build script to allow skipping the download of prebuilt Electron and instead use the system installed Electron binary.
