Please add a build workflow to allow fans of open source to easily build portmaster.
Since there is no documentation how to do that it would be great if there would be a workflow that does it, and imho its less work for you then writing a documentation.

keep in mind that Portmaster is complex and interacts with multiple parts of your system. It will never bee as easy as some app that only has to work within itself.

as a note, it will get easier as soon as we have moved away from electron to tauri.

does this earth file works to build a windows version as well?

the kext needs an ev code signature, you need to buy one for it to work

for the UI i still need safing/portmaster-ui right?
running ./pack gives an error: portmaster-ui/app-electron/dist/latest-linux.yml: No such file or directory
what am I missing?

EDIT: building manually works though
