37eccbcd33 Update 3 (of Visual Studio 2017) is leftover from 2015 (#12372)
does not apply to 2017
it's not clear to me that it's possible to download a non current version of vs2017
but if a specific version is required the directions should explain how to get it

66846bff97 Automate release (#10827)
* Create prepare-release script

* Add script to merge release

* Cleanup/add logging

* Move release process out of upload.py

* Add cleanup release branch

* Update release doc to reflect new scripts

* Fix to allow running with notesOnly

Also fixup release name and body when beta release.

* Fix issues found during release

* Use getRelease instead of getAssets

github.repos.getAssets is limited to 30 entries which means we may not get back the file we are looking for.

* Documentation corrections

Improve development workflow with built libchromiumcontent
2017-08-15 19:40:06 +09:00
Thiago de Arruda
d6fbf5f1bb Improve development workflow with built libchromiumcontent
- Add `--debug_libchromiumcontent` to build libchromiumcontent for debugging
  (shared library build).
- By default, only invoke `gclient sync` the first time to checkout chromium
  source tree. Add `--force_update_libchromiumcontent` switch to force updating.
- Document new options.

The goal is to allow faster edit/compile cycles when debugging/making changes
to libchromiumcontent.

ab69ae07b7 📝 Add debugging instructions for macOS
I already wrote up debugging instructions for Windows, but never got
around to writing them for macOS - until now! This adds a very basic
introduction to LLDB from the command line, which should empower people
to figure out what’s happening inside Electron when they call an
Electron method from JavaScript.
