- 🎯 **Cross platform** – Velopack supports building packages for **Windows**, **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](https://github.com/Squirrel/Squirrel.Windows) or [Clowd.Squirrel](https://github.com/clowd/Clowd.Squirrel), Velopack will automatically migrate your application. Just build your Velopack release and deploy! [Read more.](https://velopack.io/docs/migrating.html)
|
||||
- ⚡️ **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.
|
||||
- 📔 **Language agnostic** - With support for C#, Rust, JS, and more. Use a familiar API for updates no matter what your project is written in. Check out [Velopack Fusion](https://github.com/velopack/velopack.fusion) for more info.

## Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
This is a very simple example of the steps you would take to generate an installer and update packages for your application. Be sure to [read the documentation](https://velopack.io/docs/) for an overview of more features!
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install the command line tool `vpk`:
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
dotnet tool update -g vpk
|
||||
```
|
||||
2. Install the [Velopack NuGet Package](https://www.nuget.org/packages/velopack) in your main project:
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
dotnet add package Velopack
|
||||
```
|
||||
3. Configure your Velopack app at the beginning of `Program.Main`:
|
||||
```cs
|
||||
static void Main(string[] args)
|
||||
{
|
||||
VelopackApp.Build().Run();
|
||||
// ... your other startup code below
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
4. Publish dotnet and build your first Velopack release! 🎉
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
dotnet publish -c Release --self-contained -r win-x64 -o .\publish
|
||||
vpk pack -u YourAppId -v 1.0.0 -p .\publish -e yourMainApp.exe
|
||||
```
|
||||
5. Add automatic updating to your app:
|
||||
```cs
|
||||
private static async Task UpdateMyApp()
|
||||
{
|
||||
var mgr = new UpdateManager("https://the.place/you-host/updates");
|
||||
|
||||
// check for new version
|
||||
var newVersion = await mgr.CheckForUpdatesAsync();
|
||||
if (newVersion == null)
|
||||
return; // no update available
|
||||
|
||||
// download new version
|
||||
await mgr.DownloadUpdatesAsync(newVersion);
|
||||
|
||||
// install new version and restart app
|
||||
mgr.ApplyUpdatesAndRestart(newVersion);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you're not sure how these instructions fit into your app, check the example apps for common scenarios such as WPF or Avalonia.
