Suppose I should, still not used to this double package.json business it seems.
The one in the root folder is actually for the electron builder itself, where as the one inside the app folder is the one that actually indicates the version of Vessel (which does say 0.2.6).
I'll get them in sync next version though.
I am new to using JavaScript outside a browser. Maybe this kind of thing is just too slow for x86 boxes.
It's definitely a sub-optimal way of building desktop apps. Electron's resource consumption having to fire up it's own instance of chrome in it's own sandbox causes a world of hurt on a lot of machines. An unfortunate side effect of going this route but hopefully it'll get better as electron evolves a bit.
It will get better as users upgrade. 💻
