came across this issue when building from source and installing nwjs to /bin directory:
current nwjs sdk does not have the path: /Contents/Resources/app.nw

    It does not seem to exist in older versions of the SDK either. Perhaps the instructions should be more clear about this, but from what I understand you have to create that folder and then copy the contents of HIDE's bin folder into it. Do update on whether this helps.

    Somewhat related: #88

    I just created the folder myself historically.

    HOWEVER, hide just stopped working, or NWJS stopped working on OSX 12.4 (M1)

    I just get a black screen.

    I have used it successfully using Rosetta & the x86 build, but I went to boot it up one day, and now it just shows a black screen. I've tried a fully clean install and nothing.

    I have tried with a clean git of all dependencies and still get a black screen.

    I believe it may have something to do with NWJS rather than hide, but I'm not sure even how to approach the problem.

    However, I went back to a February build of nwjs and it still shows a black screen.

    OK: To run it on Mac, I've had to run it from the command line in the app directory.

    ./nwjs.app/Contents/MacOS/nwjs

    maybe running it from the command line inside a rosetta terminal was enough to run it properly. Launching by clicking on the icon does not work any more.

    @yz-xlame
    1. build hide >> bin
    2. rename bin >> app.nw
    3. download nwjs(is version > 0.84 run sudo xattr -cr nwjs.app)
    4. cp app.nw to nwjs sdk nwjs.app/Contents/Resources/app.nw
      run nwjs open hide, work for me
