This is a fork of WowUp that's been modified to do its best not to phone home to WowUp's servers or to force updates
I recommend you visit the Main WowUp repositories, or if it's gotten even more evil and invasive, just go straight to the max-evil, max-convenience option and hop on the Overwolf train.
Fortunately, since it's open source software, if you don't like something, you can easily modify the code:
-
First you're going to want to set up your dev machine, search the web for something like "Making an electron app", you'll need to download some tooling like Node.js ( https://nodejs.org/en/download/ )
-
Clone the source
-
Run your local version of the app:
Open a terminal and run:
npm start
-
If you've made some changes you like, hit the "Fork" button on Github, upload your changes, then you can send a pull request here and/or to the main WowUp repo.
-
You can package up the app for redistribution using electron-builder with the script the WowUp team has included in package.json like so:
npm run electron:build
