Hello @xmha97,

the binaries are just a double click away (start Compile.bat in the project's directory). So I see no need for a Release - and I even do not need to support the binaries :-)

+1 on this.

Would be great to provide (automatically) binaries in Release section

Hello @ruggi99, hello @xmha97,

I don't want to support binaries, and I see no need for this. Creating a binary yourself is "just a click away".

Why is it important for you to have binaries to download?

Greetings

I think it's UX in general. For me it's not important to have binaries, because I compiled them on my own machine, implementing the toggle option like mentioned in the other issue.

But I think providing binaries will help other people with less "computer skills" to download binaries and create a simple script in cmd or powershell. I think that most people are lazy enough not to clone this repo and compile on their machine.

As alrealy stated, it's just a suggestion, it doesn't make difference to me personally.

It's like saying: "I provide you binaries with the common base options, if you want more, clone this repo and make your edits"

添加二进制文件将有利于 scoop 等包管理工具管理该命令行程序

Hello @xmha97, hello @I-Want-ToBelieve, hello @ruggi99,

I created a Releases page. Hope I will not regret this.
