currently the dev environment is pretty nice on macos and maybe windows, but the build script only runs on macos, as far as i know. i'm not sure where linux is at in all this.
interrelated goals:
good dev env across platforms
easy builds across platforms. distributing for another platform should just be a matter of spinning up a github workflow on that platform and running the build.
i think we should transition to styled-components (BEM usage #42) because the dev process is unmatched. i tried starting this transition, but the current system didn't seem to allow for it. the app would start and elements would have classes on them generated by styled-components, but the classes had no definitions with seemingly no <style> anywhere in the DOM. it appears to have nice theming support for dark mode, and i think it'd make font changes easy (select font in settings #83)
typescript? the code currently has flow types, which was a better type system when the decision was made, but typescript has matured a lot and the community has grown massive. it would make it easier for more people to contribute.
i wasn't aware of electron-builder, but it seems to handle more than electron-packager. i need to read into this more, but here's a popular app that uses it and distributes apps for all platforms.

i wrote out a comment on the current setup, so here are some notes on how things should work in the future.
