Settings

Settings are saved in settings.json and will be generated when you first start the app.

The settings.json file is in the same folder as Tweelectron.exe
Linux:
home/.config/Tweelectron/settings.json
Example:

{
    "useTor": true,
    "useRoundPics": false,
    "theme": 0,
    "width": 1336,
    "height": 720,
    "useCustomProxy": false,
    "customProxy": "foopy:80",
    "openInTor": false,
    "torBrowserExe": null,
    "logLevel": 0
}

Or use the in-app settings! Press Alt click App -> Settings

Update Tor

Since updates can take a while and it's not a good idea to use outdated tor, you can update it yourself:
Windows:
Download the expert bundle from the tor website and move the contents inside zip to
resources/tor-win32
inside Tweelectron folder
Linux:
Download Tor source, unpack, run terminal inside folder and do:
./configure && make
and move the tor file in src/app to
resources/tor-linux
inside Tweelectron folder

Note: If you have tor already running, you can configure Tweelectron to use it as custom proxy.

Packaging source

you can use electron-packager
install globally: npm install electron-packager -g (requires root on linux)
and run build.sh (Linux only)
This will create the packaged app in ./dist
