 | 
			
		|||
- [`electron-osx-sign`] is a standalone tool for signing macOS packages.
 | 
			
		||||
- [`electron-packager`] bundles `electron-osx-sign`. If you're using `electron-packager`,
 | 
			
		||||
pass the `--osx-sign=true` flag to sign your build.
 | 
			
		||||
  - [`electron-forge`] uses `electron-packager` internally, you can set the `osxSign` option
 | 
			
		||||
    in your forge config.
 | 
			
		||||
- [`electron-builder`] has built-in code-signing capabilities. See [electron.build/code-signing](https://www.electron.build/code-signing)
