Create a package for the Microsoft Store for your Electron app, using Electron Forge. |
The AppX target builds .appx
packages which are designed to target the Microsoft Store.
You can only build the AppX target on Windows 10 or 11 machines with the Windows SDK installed. Check the electron-windows-store
docs for more information on platform requirements.
npm install --save-dev @electron-forge/maker-appx
To use @electron-forge/maker-appx
, add it to the makers
array in your Forge configuration:
{% code title="forge.config.js" %}
module.exports = {
makers: [
{
name: '@electron-forge/maker-appx',
config: {
publisher: 'CN=developmentca',
devCert: 'C:\\devcert.pfx',
certPass: 'abcd'
}
}
]
};
{% endcode %}
Configuration options are documented in MakerAppXConfig
.
For advanced debug logging for this maker, add the DEBUG=electron-windows-store*
environment variable.
