A cross platform desktop installer maker project
Hello, I have been working on a desktop app as a side project for which I needed an installer kit. I looked at some existing ones for different platforms.

Please share your thoughts: https://github.com/krishnakumar4a4/desktop-installer-maker

- EAEXT – an easy way to build cross-platform desktop software2024 · ext.store · ▲63
Hi HN! If you've ever tried to build a desktop app, you probably understand our frustrations with how challenging it is to build one and make it available on Mac, Windows, and Linux. Even with Electron, you still have to set up your own build pipelines, updating mechanisms, code-signing, deployments, and deal with cross-platform compatibility issues. We built EXT to make building cross-platform desktop software easier! Dog-fooding our own APIs, we ported 36 initial games and utilities to the EXT store (all free), and we've open-sourced all of them: https://github.com/extpkg If…
