## Desktop Packaging

Desktop packaging uses `cargo-packager` with `robius-packaging-commands` for resource handling.

### Install Tools

```bash
# Install cargo-packager
cargo install cargo-packager --locked

# Install robius-packaging-commands (v0.2.0)
cargo install --version 0.2.0 --locked \
    --git https://github.com/project-robius/robius-packaging-commands.git \
    robius-packaging-commands
```

### Configure Cargo.toml

Add packaging configuration to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[package.metadata.packager]
product_name = "YourAppName"
identifier = "com.yourcompany.yourapp"
authors = ["Your Name or Team"]
description = "A brief description of your Makepad application"
# Note: long_description has 80 character max per line
long_description = """
Your detailed description here.
Keep each line under 80 characters.
"""
icons = ["./assets/icon.png"]
out_dir = "./dist"

# Pre-packaging command to collect resources
before-packaging-command = """
robius-packaging-commands before-packaging \
    --force-makepad \
    --binary-name your-app \
    --path-to-binary ./target/release/your-app
"""
