There are several ways to update an Electron application. The easiest and
officially supported one is taking advantage of the built-in
[Squirrel](https://github.com/Squirrel) framework and
Electron's [autoUpdater](../api/auto-updater.md) module.

[autoUpdater](../api/auto-updater.md) module will download new updates from.
Depending on your needs, you can choose from one of these:
- [Hazel](https://github.com/zeit/hazel) Update server for private or open-source apps. Can be deployed for free on [Now](https://zeit.co/now) (using a single command), pulls from [GitHub Releases](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-releases/) and leverages the power of GitHub's CDN.

- [electron-release-server](https://github.com/ArekSredzki/electron-release-server) Provides a dashboard for handling releases
- [Nucleus](https://github.com/atlassian/nucleus) A complete update server for Electron apps maintained by Atlassian. Supports multiple applications and channels; uses a static file store to minify server cost.
