sort-of failed Windows installer creation about gui

[holandes22]

Awesome! I'll probably play with electron-builder during the weekend too, I'll keep you posted. Please send a PR if you have some progress or ping me if you need help

I've been able to run the ember build command, after changing the name of the app in package.json file, to exercism_gui. With this change the build.js script runs successfully, creating a Setup.exe & Setup.msi, though this breaks something else as when I run the installers, they open the app and install in a default location, but the app is empty. You can find the installers in my fork

Thank you for taking a look at this!

electron-winstaller seems cool but I think is best to have one single library that can produce installers for all platforms (so we have less moving parts).
I briefly looked at electron-builder which outputs installers for Mac/Windows and packages for most major Linux package formats. Did you have a change to check it out? (take a look at #6 for my comments on installer)

Sorry it took me quite a while to respond

That makes sense, I'll have a try building on windows with electron-builder, see what happens.
