I set up code signing for an electron app relatively recently. Best option I could find was Digicert. Really sucks that this stuff is necessary nowadays and not free, but it's not so bad. That's for Windows - for Mac you'll also need an Apple developer account, afaik they're the only people who can issue certs. EDIT: Woah, I take that back. Digicert has now gone up from $74/year to $474/year, which is crazy. I now also need a new certificate provider...

  For Electron signing we use Tucows Code signing certs (you need to register as Tucows auther for free) which are provided by Comodo for $140 for 2 years. Didn't have any issues besides getting a proper CI/CD process running.

  There aren't any great options, but if it helps we (sqlitebrowser.org) went with Certum: https://en.sklep.certum.pl/data-safety/code-signing-certificates.html https://en.sklep.certum.pl/data-safety/code-signing-certific... We chose the "Open Source Code Signing" option, with it being stored on a physical keyfob thing (eg not "in the cloud"). Total cost, including the new key fob and super expensive, week+ delay, mandatory postage (!) was around 135 Euro.

  For my project (quarkjs.io), I went for https://comodosslstore.com https://comodosslstore.com . They have the cheapest certificates I could find (at ~75USD), also they are the only ones issuing certificates for individual developers.
