`.node` native modules not working in packaged app
See original GitHub issueI’m getting this error in the built app
keytar.js:4Uncaught Error: Cannot find module "../build/Release/keytar.node"
However, the built keytar.node file looks like it’s in the correct location. It seems to me that it’s not loading because of the file extension.
Works perfectly fine in the dev environment though. Any ideas on why this is happening?
