Build native Windows Installer packages from Windows, Linux, or macOS. Start with one tested path, then use the focused guides as your installer grows.

  • Build your first MSI — prerequisites, build, authoring, and verification from a clean checkout.
  • CLI reference — every current build option, its value shape, and its default.
  • Examples — common UI, compression, condition, folder, and shortcut recipes.
  • Supported features — what Setupidity emits today and the boundaries to check before adoption.
  • Platforms — authoring host support versus the Windows runtime targeted by every generated MSI.
  • Troubleshooting — actionable fixes for common validation, build, and installation failures.

The product guides in this section are canonical for using Setupidity. The repository README remains canonical for building the project itself and contributor workflows. The documentation source map records how existing material was reused or deliberately migrated.
