Add LabRecorder to the winget Community Repository

Open brifsttar opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

winget is Windows' package manager, and I'm starting to use it more and more to automate experiment setup. I think it would be great to have LabRecorder available with it.

To add an app to winget, you have to create a PR with a manifest on the following repo: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs. I don't know if someone's willing to do that; but it looks like there's some paperwork involved, which is the best way to kill any motivation I might had to do it myself.

I don't think there is any paperwork, just a compliance check with their contributor agreement (https://cla.opensource.microsoft.com/). I think the work hours will be spent in configuring the build script.

It is a good idea, especially if Windows moves further in this direction.
