Does anyone even use winget? I tried but its repositories never have the tools I need in it. Scoop has been superior for me in every way.

- StressedDev 2y agoI have found it useful. I used to install PowerShell 7.x, kubectl, Bicep (Azure language for deploying resources), etc. It works fine. The biggest problem I have is I cannot use it to install helm because the helm package is not shipped by the helm team (I don't trust packages shipped by third parties).
- vips7L 2y agoYeah for the things they have its great, I've just found that they lack a lot of stuff. To this day they still don't have Apache Maven in the repository. I just use scoop, I've found that its repositories just have way more tools and it's way easier to contribute to.
- mycall 2y agoHave you asked the Helm team why they don't ship their own package? It might be worth the effort.
- hypercube33 2y agoI'm personally trying to use it inside configman running as SYSTEM and have gotten it working for the most part but I have not seen anything module based from Microsoft themselves. Yes what I am doing can be done with intune but that's another story for another time. RIP Store for Business. I just want to deploy PowerBI and have it always be current and self updating.
