Keep in mind: To connect to APNs you can use either Provider certificate or Authentication Token. They are different ways and Authentication Token is a new one.
Main difference: Provider certificate expires every year and needs to be regenerated (and reuploaded to your server as .p12). Authentication Token is unlimited and you don't have to recreate and reupload it.

Manual building
In case of issues with running the app on your version of OS, it's possible to easily build it yourself.
Steps:
- Download or clone the repository
- Install
nodeon your computer (https://nodejs.org/en/) - Run
npm installin the root of downloaded/cloned project - Verify that the app can be launched with the command
npm start(optional) - Build the project to generate installable files:
- For building with
electron-builderyou need to runnpm run dist. Generated files end up in the folderdistin the root of your project.
As a result electron-builder will generate:
- For macOS:
.zip,.dmg(if you build using macOS) - For Windows:
.msi(if you build using Windows) - For Linux:
.deb,.AppImage(if you build using Linux)
Keep in mind: you cannot build for Windows or Linux, if you are using macOS, or vise versa. It creates installable files only for your current OS.
