* docs: clarify ASAR integrity is supported in MAS builds Add a note to the ASAR integrity documentation explicitly stating that this feature is fully supported and recommended in Mac App Store builds. While MAS-installed apps have system-level protections, ASAR integrity provides an additional security layer and is important for MAS builds distributed outside the Mac App Store. Slack thread: https://electronhq.slack.com/archives/CB6CG54DB/p1771449093872419?thread_ts=1771446183.473289&cid=CB6CG54DB https://claude.ai/code/session_01A97nfiqHUVxLNaQyHVXS7j Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: clarify ASAR integrity support for MAS builds Updates the ASAR integrity documentation to explicitly mention that it is supported and recommended in Mac App Store builds. Clarifies that while MAS-installed apps have system-level protections (Resources folder owned by root), ASAR integrity is especially important when distributing MAS builds through other channels like direct download, since those installations won't have the read-only protections. https://claude.ai/code/session_012mBNZQW34h91NRcdFaLxNh Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> --------- Co-authored-by: trop[bot] <37223003+trop[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Official Guides
Please make sure that you use the documents that match your Electron version. The version number should be a part of the page URL. If it's not, you are probably using the documentation of a development branch which may contain API changes that are not compatible with your Electron version. To view older versions of the documentation, you can browse by tag on GitHub by opening the "Switch branches/tags" dropdown and selecting the tag that matches your version.
