Feature Request: Distribution via Winget #1078

Description

I am a heavy user of FeedFlow across my entire ecosystem. I use it daily on Linux, iOS, macOS, and Windows. While I appreciate the Microsoft Store version, the experience on Windows feels a bit disconnected compared to other platforms. Currently, I use UniGetUI to manage and update my software. Since FeedFlow isn't on Winget, I have to manually check the Store for updates, which is often slow and not very user-friendly.

I would like to suggest adding FeedFlow to the Winget repository.

Why this adds value to the project:

  1. Using Winget allows users of tools like UniGetUI to see FeedFlow updates alongside the rest of their system apps, eliminating the need to open the Microsoft Store manually.
  2. Since you already generate an MSI installer, adding it to Winget is just a matter of creating a manifest file. This can be fully automated using GitHub Actions (like winget-releaser), so it won't add friction to your release process.
  3. Winget is becoming the standard for Windows developers and enthusiasts. Being there makes the app more discoverable for the community that already uses CLI tools.

Thanks for building such a great cross-platform tool!
