README

Velopack

Velopack is a setup / installation framework for cross-platform dotnet applications. Great out-of-the-box development experience, with zero configuration or setup needed. Lightning fast to use, and lightning fast for your users, too.

Features

  • 😍 Zero config – Velopack takes your dotnet build output (eg. dotnet publish), and generates an installer, and update package in a single command.
  • 🎯 Cross platform – Velopack supports building packages for Windows and OSX, and Linux. No matter your target, Velopack can create a release in just one command.
  • 🚀 Automatic migrations - If you are coming from Squirrel.Windows or Clowd.Squirrel, Velopack will automatically migrate your application. Just build your Velopack release and deploy! Read more.
  • ⚡️ Lightning fast – Velopack is written in Rust for native performance. Creating releases is multi-threaded, and produces delta packages for ultra fast app updates. Applying update packages is highly optimised, and often can be done in the background.
