Looking for easy way for distribution of crates

• fpm

• wixsharp

  12 1,019 6.2 C#

  Framework for building a complete MSI or WiX source code by using script files written with C# syntax.

Wix# is better, but still not as easy, and it depends on .NET, which makes it a hassle to get set up in Wine compared to how, being written in Delphi and using itself as an installer, Inno Setup is practically Rust-like in how easy it is to set up in Wine.

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com sponsored

• wix3

  44 2,107 5.5 C#

  WiX Toolset v3.x

  

While Microsoft's WiX system for building MSI installers does have an open-source cross-building implementation for POSIX platforms in the form of msitools (Note that wixl is split out into a separate package on Debian-family distros), the documentation for WiX Toolset reminds me of the early years that made Git infamous.

• flatpak

  431 4,049 9.0 C

  Linux application sandboxing and distribution framework

  

My example Flatpak project files for Godot's tutorial game (Flatpak being the distro-agnostic Linux packaging solution that was developed by Freedesktop.org rather than being Canonical's latest attempt to PR their way into controlling a core part of the ecosystem like they did with Snap, Upstart, and Mir, or something that's basically "GOG.com's LD_LIBRARY_PATH-based solution, but more difficult to delete bundled libraries when a distro upgrade starts causing segfaults on startup" like AppImage.)

• AppImageKit

  133 8,438 2.9 C

  Package desktop applications as AppImages that run on common Linux-based operating systems, such as RHEL, CentOS, openSUSE, SLED, Ubuntu, Fedora, debian and derivatives. Join #AppImage on irc.libera.chat

• teamdeck-vacations

  1 0 0.0 Rust

Here's a sample for an egui app, but this was prepared only for macos packaging https://github.com/arkus7/teamdeck-vacations/blob/34bbcfb498c3a0dafc8ad2452cc56e47d229ae0e/.fpm
