Missing release script

[vicentedealencar]

I was looking for your release script for reference, but all there is is a devDependency for atom-shell-installer-assets. You probably have a script using squirrel, that I was interested on.

Maybe you wont open source it, but why?

@chrisdias please chime in

Actually, thanks for this. We no longer use that package, since we moved to Inno Setup.

+1 for open sourcing the packaging scripts for all platforms.

Open sourcing the code for incremental build and debug of a Typescript Electron apps is awesome. It would be equally great to see which way you decided to do release builds!

Maybe this was made clear somewhere I just failed to find in my searching, but how do I build the OS X app/distribution from source? All I can figure out how to do from the docs is launch a generic Electron instance using scripts/code.sh.

Semi related, I see a lot of references to an alpha version of the app. Is that public? Where can I find more details about it?

I play on writing up on packaging in vscode in June, closing in favor of #6893
