What is Conveyor?
Conveyor streamlines the complex process of desktop application distribution by automating package creation, signing, and deployment across various operating systems. It supports a wide range of frameworks including Electron, Flutter, JVM, and native applications, enabling developers to generate platform-native formats without requiring specialized servers or extensive code modifications.
The tool integrates with existing build systems and offers features like efficient delta updates, cross-building from any OS, and enterprise-ready capabilities such as custom signing scripts and security infrastructure integration. By handling technical complexities like notarization and update frameworks, Conveyor allows developers to focus on application development rather than distribution logistics.
