+# App Icons
+
+This directory contains the application icons for the AeThex Desktop app.
+
+## Required Files
+
+| File | Platform | Size | Format |
+|------|----------|------|--------|
+| `icon.ico` | Windows | 256x256 (multi-size) | ICO |
+| `icon.icns` | macOS | 512x512 (multi-size) | ICNS |
+| `icon.png` | Linux | 512x512 | PNG |
+
+## Converting from SVG
+
+The `icon.svg` file is the source icon. Use one of these methods to generate platform-specific icons:
+
+### Option 1: Online Converters
+1. **ICO**: https://convertio.co/svg-ico/ or https://cloudconvert.com/svg-to-ico
+2. **ICNS**: https://cloudconvert.com/svg-to-icns
+3. **PNG**: Any image editor or https://svgtopng.com/
+
+### Option 2: Command Line (requires ImageMagick)
+
+```bash
+# Install ImageMagick
+# macOS: brew install imagemagick
+# Ubuntu: sudo apt install imagemagick
+# Windows: choco install imagemagick
+
+# Generate PNG
+convert -background none -resize 512x512 icon.svg icon.png
+
+# Generate ICO (Windows)
+convert -background none icon.svg -define icon:auto-resize=256,128,64,48,32,16 icon.ico
+
+# For ICNS (macOS), use iconutil:
+mkdir icon.iconset
+sips -z 16 16 icon.png --out icon.iconset/icon_16x16.png
+sips -z 32 32 icon.png --out icon.iconset/icon_16x16@2x.png
+sips -z 32 32 icon.png --out icon.iconset/icon_32x32.png
+sips -z 64 64 icon.png --out icon.iconset/icon_32x32@2x.png
+sips -z 128 128 icon.png --out icon.iconset/icon_128x128.png
+sips -z 256 256 icon.png --out icon.iconset/icon_128x128@2x.png
+sips -z 256 256 icon.png --out icon.iconset/icon_256x256.png
+sips -z 512 512 icon.png --out icon.iconset/icon_256x256@2x.png
+sips -z 512 512 icon.png --out icon.iconset/icon_512x512.png
+sips -z 1024 1024 icon.png --out icon.iconset/icon_512x512@2x.png
+iconutil -c icns icon.iconset
+rm -rf icon.iconset
+```
+
+### Option 3: electron-icon-builder (Recommended)
+
+```bash
+npm install -g electron-icon-builder
+electron-icon-builder --input=icon.svg --output=./
+```
+
+## Replacing the Default Icon
+
+1. Create your custom icon as a 512x512 or larger PNG/SVG
+2. Convert to all three formats using the methods above
+3. Replace the files in this directory
+4. Rebuild the desktop app: `npm run desktop:build`

+# AeThex Desktop App - Release Guide
+
+This guide covers building, signing, and distributing the AeThex Desktop application.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Prerequisites
+- Node.js 20+
+- npm or yarn
+- For Windows builds: Windows 10/11
+- For macOS builds: macOS 11+ with Xcode Command Line Tools
+- For Linux builds: Ubuntu 20.04+ or equivalent
+
+### Building Locally
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies
+npm install
+
+# Build the desktop app (creates installers in ./dist)
+npm run desktop:build
+```
+
+## Automated Builds (GitHub Actions)
+
+The repository includes a GitHub Actions workflow that automatically builds for all platforms.
+
+### Triggering a Release
+
+1. **Tag a release:**
+   ```bash
+   git tag v1.0.0
+   git push origin v1.0.0
+   ```
+
+2. **Manual trigger:**
+   Go to Actions > Build Desktop App > Run workflow
+
+### Build Artifacts
+
+After a successful build, artifacts are available:
+- **Windows:** `AeThex Desktop Terminal-{version}-win-x64.exe`
+- **macOS:** `AeThex Desktop Terminal-{version}-mac-{arch}.dmg`
+- **Linux:** `AeThex Desktop Terminal-{version}-x64.AppImage`, `.deb`
+
+## Code Signing
+
+### Windows Code Signing
+
+To sign Windows builds, you need a code signing certificate.
+
+1. **Get a certificate:**
+   - Purchase from DigiCert, Sectigo, or other CA
+   - Or use Azure SignTool with Azure Key Vault
+
+2. **Add GitHub Secrets:**
+   ```
+   WIN_CSC_LINK: Base64-encoded .pfx certificate
+   WIN_CSC_KEY_PASSWORD: Certificate password
+   ```
+
+3. **Update electron-builder.yml:**
+   ```yaml
+   win:
+     certificateFile: ${env.WIN_CSC_LINK}
+     certificatePassword: ${env.WIN_CSC_KEY_PASSWORD}
+   ```
+
+### macOS Code Signing & Notarization
+
+Apple requires apps to be signed and notarized for distribution.
+
+1. **Prerequisites:**
+   - Apple Developer Program membership ($99/year)
+   - Developer ID Application certificate
+   - App-specific password for notarization
+
+2. **Add GitHub Secrets:**
+   ```
+   APPLE_ID: Your Apple ID email
+   APPLE_APP_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD: Generated from appleid.apple.com
+   APPLE_TEAM_ID: Your Team ID (from Developer Portal)
+   CSC_LINK: Base64-encoded .p12 certificate
+   CSC_KEY_PASSWORD: Certificate password
+   ```
+
+3. **Update GitHub workflow to include notarization:**
+   ```yaml
+   - name: Build and notarize
+     run: npm run desktop:build
+     env:
+       APPLE_ID: ${{ secrets.APPLE_ID }}
+       APPLE_APP_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.APPLE_APP_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD }}
+       APPLE_TEAM_ID: ${{ secrets.APPLE_TEAM_ID }}
+       CSC_LINK: ${{ secrets.CSC_LINK }}
+       CSC_KEY_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.CSC_KEY_PASSWORD }}
+   ```
+
+4. **Update electron-builder.yml:**
+   ```yaml
+   mac:
+     notarize:
+       teamId: ${env.APPLE_TEAM_ID}
+   ```
+
+## Auto-Updates
+
+The app is configured to check for updates from GitHub Releases.
+
+### How it works:
+1. User installs the app
+2. On launch, app checks GitHub Releases for newer version
+3. If found, prompts user to download and install
+
+### Configuration
+
+The `publish` section in `electron-builder.yml` configures the update server:
+
+```yaml
+publish:
+  provider: github
+  owner: aethex
+  repo: aethex-desktop
+  releaseType: release
+```
+
+### Testing Updates
+
+1. Build version 1.0.0 and install
+2. Push version 1.0.1 to GitHub Releases
+3. Launch the app - it should detect and offer the update
+
+## Customization
+
+### App Icons
+
+Replace files in `build/icons/`:
+- `icon.ico` - Windows (256x256 multi-size)
+- `icon.icns` - macOS (512x512 multi-size)
+- `icon.png` - Linux (512x512)
+
+See `build/icons/README.md` for conversion instructions.
+
+### Installer Graphics
+
+**Windows NSIS:**
+- `build/installerHeader.bmp` - 150x57 pixels
+- `build/installerSidebar.bmp` - 164x314 pixels
+
+**macOS DMG:**
+- `build/icons/icon.icns` - Volume icon
+- (Optional) Add `build/dmg-background.png` (540x380 pixels) and update electron-builder.yml with `dmg.background: build/dmg-background.png`
+
+### License
+
+Add a `LICENSE` file to the root directory to display during Windows installation.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "App is damaged" on macOS
+- App is not signed or notarized
+- Run: `xattr -cr /Applications/AeThex\ Desktop\ Terminal.app`
+
+### Windows SmartScreen warning
+- App is not code-signed
+- Users can click "More info" > "Run anyway"
+
+### Linux AppImage won't run
+```bash
+chmod +x AeThex*.AppImage
+./AeThex*.AppImage
+```
+
+### Build fails with "icon not found"
+- Ensure `build/icons/icon.ico` exists for Windows builds
+- Ensure `build/icons/icon.icns` exists for macOS builds
+
+## Version Management
+
+Update version in `package.json` before creating a release tag:
+
+```json
+{
+  "version": "1.0.0"
+}
+```
+
+The version is used in:
+- Installer filename
+- Auto-update checks
+- About dialog
