# AFFiNE Electron App

## Development

To run AFFiNE Desktop Client Application locally, run the following commands:

```sh
# in repo root
yarn install
yarn workspace @affine/native build
yarn dev

# in packages/frontend/apps/electron
yarn generate-assets
yarn dev # or yarn prod for production build
```

## Troubleshooting

If you have trouble building electron during `yarn install`, try setting mirror environment variable:

```sh
export ELECTRON_MIRROR="https://registry.npmmirror.com/-/binary/electron/"
```
