As very briefly mentioned in #204
Then, I think it's better to have Windows releases in zip format, since there is no .tar.gz support natively, I use 7zip for that.
It would be very, very cool if you could provide Windows binary releases as .zip
archive instead of .tar.gz
– Windows isn't natively able to unpack/work with .tar.gz
. This makes it especially troublesome because tools such as winget
are also not able to deal with .tar.gz
either.
Providing .zip
files would open up a lot of additional fancy integration possibilities via e.g. winget
and related tooling making adoption on Windows way easier and nicer.
