Hi — TODO.md lists "Distribution - Add to Chocolatey, winget and scoop." I'd like to take this on.
I'd suggest starting with winget, since it needs nothing from you: manifests are community-submitted to microsoft/winget-pkgs and validated by their CI, and the MSI you already attach to releases is exactly what winget's MSI installer type wants (ProductCode + SHA256). I'd submit the manifest for v1.17.0 and keep it updated on future releases — or, if you'd prefer it automated, I can set up a small GitHub Action using wingetcreate that submits the update whenever you publish a release (that route needs a token secret on your side, so it's entirely optional).
After that, scoop's Extras bucket is a natural fit for the portable zip, and Chocolatey is doable too, though it involves a chocolatey.org account/moderation decision that should be yours to make.
Two questions before I start:
- Are you happy for me to submit the winget manifest? Any preference on the package identifier (the default convention would be
63BeetleSmurf.PinnyNotes)?
- Which channel would you like after that, if any?
Once the manifest is accepted I'd also send a small PR adding a winget install line to the README.
