# Standalone electron-builder config for the "MSIX" Windows target: same
# feature set as Full (bundled node + ffmpeg), packaged for Microsoft Store
# submission instead of NSIS. See C:\Users\admin\devel\msix-installer.md for
# the plan this implements -- read that first, especially §4 (why the
# installer can carry none of installer.nsh's elevation logic: an AppX/MSIX
# install never elevates, by design) and §8 (what is still unverified here).
#
# Deliberately NOT layered onto package.json's `build` field, same reasoning
# as electron-builder.light.yml: --config reads ONLY this file, so nothing
# here can accidentally inherit or merge with Full's `nsis`/signing config.
#
# electron-builder's target key for this is `appx`, not `msix` -- this
# version (app-builder-lib's AppxTarget.js, checked against the installed
# ^26.15.3) has no separate `msix` target. It still produces a package
# Partner Center's MSIX upload flow accepts; the mismatch is a naming
# artifact of the tool, not a statement about which container format comes
# out. Re-check this against whatever version is installed if it is ever
# bumped -- do not assume the target name from memory.
#
# No CSC (code-signing cert) is configured for this target, and that is
# correct, not an oversight: per app-builder-lib's own
# windowsSignToolManager.js (computePublisherName), an AppX target built
# with no certificate configured is logged as "Windows Store only build" and
# left unsigned, with `publisher` written into the manifest as-is. Microsoft
# signs the package itself at publish time (msix-installer.md §3) -- signing
# it here first would be pointless work, not extra safety.

  # executable, per AppxTarget.js's `executable` macro -- there is no config
  # switch to point it at a different bundled exe). build/appx-extensions.xml
  # declares that extension by hand for exactly this reason. Whether

  # mechanism is the other open item in msix-installer.md §8 -- untested
  # until sideloaded.
