WinGet Support

User problem

Some users require a method to install Plotly Studio via the WinGet package management system instead of downloading it manually from the website. Without this capability, IT administrators and advanced users cannot easily deploy or update the software programmatically across multiple machines, leading to repetitive manual intervention and inefficiencies in endpoint software management.

What is it?

This proposed feature is the distribution of Plotly Studio through the Windows Package Manager (WinGet) repository. If implemented, each new software release would automatically have its manifest uploaded to the WinGet service, making the application available directly through the Windows command-line interface.

What does it allow users to do?

• Automate Installations: Users can install Plotly Studio programmatically using standard WinGet commands, bypassing the need for manual web downloads.

• Streamline Deployment: IT administrators can integrate the installation process directly into their existing endpoint software management solutions and deployment scripts.

• Simplify Updates: Users can easily keep the application up to date alongside their other system packages through centralized package management workflows.
