Description

For v0.2, the asar option was set to false - meaning the app is not bundled into an asar archive. The electron-builder docs recommend keeping this as true, but excluding certain files. This can also help with the app launch speed. On all platforms, we get this warning due to disabling asar packing:

Packaging using asar archive is disabled — it is strongly not recommended.

To re-enable it, the files in the bin folder must be excluded.
