Support for winget

Open Zamiell opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

In the installation instructions, it says for Windows users to use scoop. But winget is the official Windows package manager, and everyone already has this installed on their Windows 10 already without having to do anything, so I propose that this software is installable with winget.

None of the existing pakcages are maintained by the lsd maintainers, but I'll keep this issue open to discuss on anything that can be done from the lsd side to help with packages or any other discussion around it.

I would recommend using Winget for GUI applications, and scoop.sh for CLI tools like lsd. I find that things run a lot smoother that way.

Just a recommendation, not a solution to the lack of lsd on Winget.

Once it is merged, Winget Releaser would have to be set up in this repo for automatic package updates.

I find that things run a lot smoother that way.

I don't know what you mean by "smoother". Both packages install the same way on both package managers.
