/spdt/ - Software Packaging and Distribution Thread - "I Actually Finished Something" Edition Anonymous 04/18/2025 (Fri) 17:12:40 No. 17969

Thought this might be an interesting topic I don't read as much about on here. >installers >uninstallers >onefiles >code signing >CI/CD bullshit To kick things off, any opinions on NSIS vs InnoSetup vs WiX? Especially for integrating with Github Actions. Last time I actually needed to make an installer was pre-9/11 for a VisualBasic thing so I'm a BIT out of the loop, but I used NSIS at the time just because I liked WinAmp. WiX looks like a fucking RABBIT HOLE and overkill for what I need, so for the moment I'm going with InnoSetup unless there's some reason not to?

I've made a bash script where one of the commands is to install something, does that count?
