Possible to run ArmV7 Apps on Manjaro?

[gandlers]

Hi Tophneal,

thanks for your suggestion but "building" doesn't create a package which can be loaded through the Package manager.

"building" probably isn't the correct terminology, betaflight-configurator "built" using NW.js.

The instructions are to:
install node.js
install yarn using npm: 'npm install yarn -g'
inside the project folder run: 'yarn install'
then run 'yarn start' and 'yarn test'

At this point you can "build" the app using the supplied gulpfile.js:
'yarn gulp <taskname> [platform]'

task can be, dist, apps, debug or release
platform can be --osx64, --linux64, --win64 or --android, there are also --win32, --linux32 and --armv7 options for the platform in the gulpfile but they arent officially supported.

I have built using 'yarn gulp release --armv7' which initally failed as node.js wasnt the correct version identified in the .nvmrc file, so had to downgrade to node v14.x. Eventually produced the armv7 release archive but cant work out how to run it on the 64bit manjaro OS.

Not having any idea on how node (or NW.js as it seems to be called now) works certainly doesnt help this amateur.
 
I've been trying to read the gulpfile to work out if I can create a new platform for armv8 but its all beyond my capability unfortunately.
