Missing information how to build for arm64 and x64

[sebastianrath]

• Version: 22.11.7

• Electron Version: 13.1.2
• Electron Type (current, beta, nightly): current
• Electron-updater: 4.3.9
• Target: Mac arm64 & x64

Description

I'm building an Electron app on Mac for arm64 and x64. There are 2 options for bundling. Could anyone help out with either or both of them?

1. Fat/Universal build

• Advantages: One file to rule them all
• Problem: There is no documentation how to build an Electron app for universal arch.

2. Seperate build

• Advantage 1: Smaller app bundle
• Problem: There is no documentation about how to use it with electron-updater. I've two build machines (arm64 and x64) and both would overwrite each others latest-mac.yml. Are there any insights to this topic how to have one latest-mac.yml with both architectures?

Regarding 1: This post has info on how to configure for --universal via CLI and in electron-builder.js config
