To package an application that utilizes react-router-dom and incorporates Electron, React, and Vite technologies, follow these steps:

  1. Ensure that your application is fully functional and has been tested thoroughly.

  2. Install the electron-builder package using npm or yarn:

npm install electron-builder --save-dev

or

yarn add electron-builder --dev
  1. Add a build script to your package.json file:
"scripts": {
  "build": "electron-builder"
}
  1. Create an electron-builder configuration file named electron-builder.json in the root directory of your project. The contents of the file should look something like this:
{
  "productName": "MyApp",
  "directories": {
    "output": "dist"
  },
  "files": [
    "public/**/*",
    "build/**/*",
    "node_modules/**/*",
    "src/main.js"
  ],
  "extraMetadata": {
    "main": "build/electron.js"
  },
  "electronVersion": "13.1.8",
  "nsis": {
    "oneClick": false,
    "perMachine": true,
    "allowElevation": true,
    "allowToChangeInstallationDirectory": true,
    "installerIcon": "public/favicon.ico",
    "uninstallerIcon": "public/favicon.ico"
  }
}
  1. Modify the main script in your package.json file to include the electron script:
"main": "build/main.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "vite",
    "build": "vite build && electron-builder",
    "electron": "electron .",
    "postinstall": "electron-builder install-app-deps"
  },
  1. Build your application using the build script:
npm run build

or

yarn build
  1. After building your application, navigate to the dist directory and test your application by running the executable file.

Your application should now be packaged as an executable file that can be distributed and installed on other computers.
