I was fed up with having to keep things like npm, NodeJS and git up to date manually; so I created a little script that keeps things up to date automatically (configurable on a per-app basis) via WinGet.

I know there are already things out there… but they looked like a pain to install, and this is simple enough that I actually understand what it’s doing XD

https://github.com/ELowry/WinGet-Updater

It should soon be available for download via… winget install EricLowry.WinGetUpdater as well (awaiting validation on their end)!

    Yeah, no worries. Someone else pointed it out to me recently.

    I feel there’s a place for both of these. This is lightweight and focused on updates, whereas UniGet is a full-fratured app. Both have their benefits IMHO.
