[Feature] Auto-Update
We're missing the ability to 'auto-update' the builds - right now, to update and pick up the latest, you have to download it from the early access portal.
This is very inconvenient - it'd be ideal to have an auto-update option from the app!
The work required is:
- Create an endpoint to check for updates (based on a license key)
- For Windows:
- Download the installer, verify codesign signature
- Close the app and run the installer with silent
- Restart the app
- For OSX:
- Integrate
squirrel - Hook up to installation endpoint / payload
- Integrate
- For Linux:
- Investigate
AppImageUpdate
- Investigate
Wanted to voice my preference per the 0.5.2 release note - more important to me to have something that plays nicely with NixOS updating than builtin auto-update. Not exactly sure what that would look like, but I think @lobre has taken a look at that in #2311
My 2 cents: As a (Linux) user, I always prefer OS package managers (like Flatpak (or Snap)) over app-integrated solutions which give me no transparency or opportunity for input.
