[FEATURE] Windows install with Winget #293
Comments
If the automation is going to be a GitHub action, you can look at PowerToys and Oh-My-Posh for examples. The wingetcreate tool can also be used to generate manifests and submit the PR. |

Is your feature request related to a problem?
Not really, more a "quality of life" feature for the Windows users.
Which solution do you suggest?
Add devpod to the Winget packages, so it can be installed more easily in the most recent versions of Windows.
Which alternative solutions exist?
Currently we already can install devpod by downloading the MSI file and then running the installer. The CLI also can be downloaded as a standalone, however as Windows doesn't have a "common" place to store the standalone binaries, some PATH configuration is needed.
This is only true for the CLI as a standalone, as the full install allows to add the binary to the PATH with a simple click in the UI.
Additional context
In order to help, here's the manifests created with the tool from the winget-pkgs repo: YamlCreate.ps1.
Here's the log of the creation process:
winget-devpod-install-log.txt
Here's the manifest files for the version 0.1.2:
loft-sh.devpod.installer.zip
The following steps explain how to test it:
As shown in the log, I didn't create a PR for adding it to the winget-pkgs repo as I though you might want to review the different fields and even automate it through a github action.
Last but not least, only the first version will require a "longer" process, as there's a faster creation process for the updates.
Hope this helps.
