  I'm trying to add electron auto updater and added electron-updater dependency. Now after building the app using yarn compile && electron-builder (I'm using vue electron), I keep getting a window with the following error when trying to run the app:

A JavaScript error occurred in the main process

Uncaught Exception:

The app runs fine after clicking the OK button. But it is very annoying.

yarn add source-map-support

I should have told you that I already have installed source-map-support.

Please show your electron builder config.

I got it working by installing electron-builder as dev dependency. I was curious why it wasn't working. I had source-map-support installed as a regular non-dev dependency.
