<div dir="ltr"><div>winget is pretty great. It works about like you'd expect from any other package manager. And it has a very large collection of libraries and software already available for it. As for how to add to it, I haven't the slightest idea as creating packages for Windows is not a target I've undertaken.<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Nov 27, 2023 at 7:03 PM Troy A.

<p>For those who build packages for Windows. We received this
request on sword-support. It sounds interesting.<br>

<div>I had a catastrophic fail on Windows resulting in a
fully reset operating system recently. I looked for some
"newer" option for installations and there was an option
called winget in powershell 7, and likely earlier(You can
disable powershell 2, uninstall the microsoft store
powershell 5 and just use powershell 7 and winget - <a href="https://winstall.app/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://winstall.app/</a>
). It's amazing. I installed all the software I could
through winget, and I have found software dependencies
update through winget easily(including dependencies from
software installed by Steam).</div>
<p>However, I also found that very little Bible software is
using winget which is why I'm requesting this. There's
BPBible, which requires additions separately downloaded
through a web browser and Logos 9. Other than than,
there's nothing Bible there. There's not even Bible memory
apps.</p>
