• Managing python projects like a pro!

  Scoop is a command-line installer for Windows, aimed at making it easier for users to manage software installations and maintain a clean system.

• bruhJustLemmeDownloadTheSdk

  Use a package manager! Assuming Windows (since it's the odd one out), get yourself some scoop then just scoop install openjdk. No need to navigate to a website, download bundleware, click next-next-next and accidentally install a virus like some caveman from 1997. This has been a solved problem since ancient times!

• How easy is it to setup Neovim and Nvchad on windows?

  Should be easy enough, I installed neovim on my windows machine with scoop (you can even get nightly if you want), it's basically a one line install. You can also do a manual install if you want, but you don't have to. It took a little fiddling for me because I wanted to install scoop as well as all applications onto my D drive rather than my C drive, but nothing too crazy. I never got NvChad on my windows...

• Calibre – New in Calibre 7.0

  I update it with Brew on macOS and Scoop [1] on Windows (but I guess it is included in other package managers such as chocolatey). Of course, a built-in auto-updater would be good, but a packaged version is a nice workaround for me. [1]: https://scoop.sh/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Tauri v1.3 — NSIS installer, security audit & External API Access

  Use Inno Setup. It's comparably sized, VSCode uses it and GOG.com uses customized builds of it (it's open-source but written in Delphi), and it has a much more declarative (though still extensible) approach that does do stuff like uninstall tracking by default. Source: about 1 year ago

• In the year 2023, what is the best way to deploy/distribute a WPF Application?

  We eventually settled on a combination of InnoSetup with InnoSetuo Dependency Installer and NetSparkle which offered a much cleaner experience and use of AzureAD Authentication for Azure Storage Blobs (for updates) as well as InTune Deployments with proper version detection.

• is there like an application etiquette or something?

  You don't typically make these things yourself from scratch, you use a tool that does it for you. E.g. InnoSetup: https://jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php. Source: about 1 year ago

• [Windows] Looking for open source program made to install other archived programs and create uninstaller for them

  The two most popular such installers are Inno Setup and NSIS. Inno is much easier to use (and will handle most tasks automatically), while NSIS creates somewhat smaller installers (but requires you to basically micromanage everything). Source: about 1 year ago
