Windows installer using WiX Toolset
Start date:
2013-10-27
% Done:
100%
Description
Doomsday's Windows installer is currently based on Inno Setup. However, WiX Toolset would enable a better installer with modularization and integration with Windows' native installation system.
There is an old work branch for this (replacing-innosetup-with-wixtoolset).
