Installation

$ npm install sqlectron-core --save

Configuration

SQLECTRON keeps a hidden configuration file called .sqlectron.json at the user's home directory (~/ osx and linux; %userprofile% windows ).

Although you can change this file manually, most of time you should not worry about it because SQLECTRON will manage the configuration for you.
