On Linux we use snap to insure easy install and easy way to push updates.

But in Windows there is no such option that I know of.

This made me thinking what if we can ota (over the air update) the program instead of using existing stores.

One option is to create a code that will check if there is a new version, then download the code from GitHub and run the executable and quiet the old program.
This could work but it is a little bit risky and not stable.

I have found this package which can also do something like this but it's worth checking more options.

When thinking about it it does not worth the work as users will also need to install MQTT and Node-RED which are hard to install on windows.

Maybe docker will be a good option.
