I'm reading some articles on it, will discuss implementation asap

[rrhythmsharma]

@akashnimare, I've created electron-travis-ci for the experiment but I am facing some errors in the testing process so I'll try to update with the result. Initially, I have been trying to build an installer for macOS and Linux.

[adityamudgil2505]

@akashnimare I wish to work on this issue.
I have some query regarding this issue:

1. Does the release is regular release or a draft release?
2. On which branch does the deployment for the release branch should run?

[akashnimare]

1. Draft
2. All I think

So basically we want to set this up in a way that if someone opens a PR, will get all the installers (for inspiration, check out other electron apps) for that particular PR so we don't need to invest time in building/testing the installers.
