Provides documentation and manifest templates for submitting winget-tui to the microsoft/winget-pkgs repository.

Documentation

  • WINGET_SUBMISSION.md - Complete submission workflow: manifest generation via wingetcreate, directory structure, validation, PR process, multi-arch support
  • WINGET_QUICKSTART.md - Command reference for common operations
  • manifests/README.md - Template usage and validation instructions

Manifest Templates

Three YAML files in manifests/example/ following manifest schema 1.6.0:

# Shanselman.WingetTUI.installer.yaml
InstallerType: portable
Commands: [winget-tui]
Installers:
  - Architecture: x64

  - Architecture: arm64
    InstallerUrl: https://github.com/shanselman/winget-tui/releases/download/v0.1.3/winget-tui-arm64.exe
