Some Indication of Popularity/Repute

App license: MIT

Why should this app be added?

  • Popular among game developers and systems programmers
  • Actively maintained with regular releases
  • No current Windows package manager support
  • Complements existing development tools in extras bucket
  • Easy to create a package!
  • Casey Muratori uses this - https://youtu.be/M2ZW4uwxU8k?t=1342

Additional info:

  • Latest version: v0.9.19-alpha
  • Download URL pattern: https://github.com/EpicGamesExt/raddebugger/releases/download/v{version}/raddbg.zip
  • Binary: raddbg.exe
  • Self-contained executable, no complex dependencies

P.s. I've also created an issue in extras at first - https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Extras/issues/15611 But it seems that we meet the main criteria. So I can close extras issue if required. About the GUI: we can use it with or without gui (radbin.exe/radlink.exe) or with gui raddbg.exe, but its better to provide the gui in one package (like cmake does)

Also we can print out the recommendation to install Microsoft C/C++ Build Tools v15 (2017) or later
