Research direction
Examine the repository's build configuration, likely in a file such as 'electron builder.yml' or similar, to understand how the AppImage package is generated. Then, adapt the configuration to produce an RPM package using electron builder's Linux target options. Review the issue comments for any maintainer hints about preferred tools (e.g., using rpmbuild). Test the resulting RPM on a Fedora system to ensure correct icon and desktop integration.
