I have successfully built an application using MVC Core 2 and SQLite. After running the BUILD command I noticed the following issues:

  • The size of the build folder is 360MB. This is huge for simple MVC app.

  • The app launch time is very slow. It takes about 20-30 seconds before you see the window.

  • The Application name defaults to ElectronNET.Host. This value is coming from package.json which is generated by the Electron.net.

  • The App icon defaults to Electron icon. Passing new icon path as part of the build command parameter did not help.
    How can I include my own package.json file so it does not take the name ElectronNET.Host?
    How can I reduce the size of the application and fix the above issues?
