A year and half after our initial announcement, InstallAware Multi Platform Beta 1 is finally here – shipping on Friday this week! Look at the terrific work that’s been accomplished by our team in this exciting evolution of InstallAware:
o Native Binaries: Supporting Linux, macOS, and Windows with zero dependencies (no Java) – zero failures.
o Single Source: A single setup script (and dialogs) that look & feel & work the same on each compiled target.
o Code Signing with Notarization: macOS Gatekeeper friendly! Sign, notarize, and even staple while building.
o Elevation: Official Linux/macOS/Windows privilege escalation channels (with corresponding folder paths).
o Partial Web Deploy: Structure your setups into as many (shareable) online and offline segments as you like.
o Tools & IDE: Command line builds, Dialog Designer, and even the script editor – just as you know & love them!
o Core Commands: Install Files, Create Shortcut, Run Program, Compiler Variables; plus the visual debugger.
o Native Engine: Registry-free state management, per-user/per-machine installs, runtime mutable features.
o Instance Management: Local setup caching (maintenance without source), source resolution (network installs).
o Custom Uninstalls: Bind to external setup logs for seamless old version removals/updates, nothing hard-coded.
Join the conversation and directly shape the the future of cross platform installation!
Beta 1, launching on Friday this week, implements 100% of the above!
We’re thrilled to be partnering with you on this journey, and anxious to hear what you think of InstallAware MP!
