Consider publishing this in the Windows Store #2758
Comments
Interesting idea! |
Powershell and Python are available in the store, see https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9MZ1SNWT0N5D and https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9PJPW5LDXLZ5.
I don't know about Rust software, but it shouldn't matter since Rust is statically linked and you can use the full Win32 API from the store. |
Cool, thanks for investigating! :) |

I research it today, and I am afraid that Microsoft Store is not suitable for things like coreutils…

@YDX-2147483647, that's not a showstopper - just publishing the coreutils as an unsandboxed |
Although it is not widely known, the Windows Store allows installation of command line binaries into a directory that is in the user's PATH. Having this collection of tools available to Windows users with a straightforward method for installation and upgrades would be a huge benefit.
