In the year 2023, what is the best way to deploy/distribute a WPF Application?
We eventually settled on a combination of InnoSetup with InnoSetuo Dependency Installer and NetSparkle which offered a much cleaner experience and use of AzureAD Authentication for Azure Storage Blobs (for updates) as well as InTune Deployments with proper version detection.

WinForms Application Updater
Before we stopped developing Desktop Applications, NetSparkle was our preferred choice but you have to provide your own installer (we used InnoSetup.

What tool do you use to create an installer for your desktop applications?
She also had a rather sour attitude we didn't care much for (example). We finally settled on NetSparkle as it allowed us to have complete control over the frontend implementation. The added pluses were not being forced to adopt SemVer behavior, improved digital signature signing and the ability to both sign the update and the manifest.

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (27/2021)!
Are there any good update libraries that implement digital signatures like ed25519? Like self_update but with digital signatures, or something like NetSparkle for rust. Assume I don't want to update from a github or anything.

One line of code that did cost $8k
I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks checking every 5 mins is a little bit excessive!
Seeing as it's macOS only is there even any reason to roll your own update mechanism when you can use the Sparkle framework [1]?

What is the best method you guys use to distribute desktop apps over your websites?
The bucket contains dmg files and an appcast.xml that allows for updates. I'm using the auto_updater package, which in turn uses the popular Sparkle library.

Do I have to enroll in Apple Developer Program to distribute macOS applications as a final product?
Our build process is automated using fastlane. That handles building and testing the app as well as signing, notarizing and uploading to Amazon S3. We distribute via a link on our website -- Callisto. Updates are handled using Sparkle. We have a custom built appcast generator as part of our website that reads the S3 bucket and builds the feed that Sparkle uses.
