Checkout the Todo sample application for a starting point. https://github.com/elixir-desktop/desktop-example-app

Run elixir-desktop on MacOS/Windows/Android ✅
Run elixir-desktop on Android/iOS ✅
Package elixir-desktop based apps for Android/iOS ✅ (see example-app repo for iOS and Android)
Package elixir-desktop based apps in installers for MacOS/Windows/Linux
Update the desktop example app built installers for MacOS/Windows/Linux using GitHub actions
Use a repo of pre-compiled Erlang binaries for Android/iOS/MacOS/Windows/Linux when building Apps, so one call of mix desktop.deploy will create installer for all platforms.
Integrate Code Signing for Windows/MacOS
Build a GitHub actions based auto-update flow

All suggestions are welcome!

Cheers!
