Deploying Compiled Apps

Post by andyh1234 » Wed Nov 21, 2018 2:42 pm

Hi,
Any suggestions on the best way to deploy compiled apps?

I've not compiled anything since 2013 so Im guessing things might have changed or moved on. Are there any current up to date deployment apps, sort of '1 click' type things for windows and mac?

Im happy codesigning the app and or installer separately if needed but its been such a long time ive forgotten what I used before to actually make a professional installer, and it is probably out of date anyway!

Thanks

Andy

I tend to put them in a zip file and upload them to my Dropbox account,
and then people can easily download them and decompress them on their own machines.

For Windows you could use NSIS portable from portableapps.com. Easy to work with and you can create a professional looking installer.

Or you could use Piccolo Installer v.1.1.6 from the livecode share.

And there are many more possibilities.....
