# Install the MSI package (run as Administrator)
# The installer will:
# - Check for and install Python 3.12 if needed
# - Install Visual C++ Redistributable if needed
# - Extract application files to C:\Program Files\SysManage Server
# - Create Python virtual environment and install dependencies
# - Create Windows Service "SysManageServer"
# - Start the service automatically

This release includes comprehensive Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) files in CycloneDX JSON format for supply chain security and vulnerability analysis:
Standalone Downloads:
- backend-sbom.json - Complete inventory of Python dependencies
- frontend-sbom.json - Complete inventory of Node.js dependencies
Download and inspect:
