Conversation

By the way, I'd also like to introduce x-cmd/install. It is an open-source community dedicated to collecting and maintaining more installation methods for more software. If your project has an installation method that you'd like to make available to more users, you're welcome to contribute it to the community. Once added, users can browse and search for available installation methods at x-cmd.com/install, or discover and install these tools directly through the Project authors are also very welcome to contribute installation methods for their own projects and share them with the community! |

Thanks for this, and for x-cmd — a 4.6k-star toolkit written in awk is a genuinely impressive thing to have built. I'm going to pass on this one, for a reason about this page rather than about x-cmd. Every install method in that section is one I publish to: the apt repo is mine and signed with my key, the Homebrew tap is mine, and the WinGet manifest and install script point at hashes I generate. Two things that might help with the others you've sent: the section opens by saying every install line ends with On the x-cmd/install invitation: that one I'm more open to. I keep my README to channels I publish to myself, but I do carry consumer-side install lines in catalog listings, so a community index is the right slot for it rather than the install section. Let me look at what contributing there involves. |

Thanks for the detailed feedback! That makes sense, and I understand why you'd prefer to keep the README limited to installation methods that you directly publish and maintain. I'll also fix the issues you pointed out. And thanks for being open to |
