We are seeking contributions to creating a new way to generate a Windows installer for our project. Our current installer is built using the NSIS script, but we are looking to transition to a solution that meets the following requirements:

  1. Cross-platform compatibility: The ability to create the Windows installer from a Linux environment.
  2. Environment Variable Configuration: The installer should be able to add the necessary environment values during the installation process.

Acceptance Criteria:

  • The installer can be built on a Linux machine and generate a working installer for Windows.
  • Or add a way to run the workflow on windows while able to build linux deb, rpm, macOS builds.
  • The installer adds the necessary environment values during the installation process on Windows.
  • The implementation should be documented to allow others to understand and maintain the installer in the future.
  • (Optional) It would be beneficial if the installer solution is open-source or has a permissive license.

We are happy to provide guidance and support as you work on this issue. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or to share progress.
