#### `dist` and `src`

- Once `npm run dev` or `npm run build` is executed. Will be generated `dist`, it is the same as the `src` structure.

- This ensures the accuracy of path calculation.

```tree
├── dist
|   ├── main
|   ├── preload
|   ├── renderer
├── src
|   ├── main
|   ├── preload
|   ├── renderer
|
```

## How to work

- The `Main-process`, `Renderer-process` and `Preload-script` are all config in `configs/xxx.ts`.

- All files are built using `Vite`, is supper fast.

- `scripts/build.mjs` only calls the `Vite` API and uses the `configs/xxx.ts` config file to build.

- The difference between `scripts/watch.mjs` and `build.mjs` is that the watch option is configured for the Main-process and Preload-script. The Renderer-process uses `require ('vite').createServer`

- Manage projects more through configuration other than scripts. -- **🥳 Simple and clearly**
