- Research direction
- The issue asks about adding support for various package managers (e.g., Homebrew, Snap, Chocolatey) on Windows, Linux, and macOS. The comments contain many suggestions but no clear direction from maintainers. A contributor should read through the 34 comments to understand common requests and possible approaches. The maintainer (Rigellute) has not responded, so the scope and acceptance criteria are unclear. Look at the existing repository structure to see if there are any packaging scripts or CI workflows. The issue is from 2019 and is stale, so the research should first confirm if the project is still actively maintained and if this feature is still desired.
