Electron: Using autoUpdater with an unsigned app on OS X
- Electron version: 0.34.7
- Operating system: OS X
Hello, is there a technical reason why this isn't possible? I can't find relevant documentation or other issues on the topic...

Verifying a code signature is the easy way to ensure an update succeeded

This behavior is provided/required by Squirrel which the auto update library that Electron uses, it wasn't an explicit choice for Electron apps to have this requirement.

I'm going to close this out since this would require major Squirrel.Mac changes.
If that gets changed in Squirrel.Mac someday then it eventually land in Electron.
I'm going to update the docs though to make sure this is clear.
