Versions:
rewinged 0.14.0 by jantari is a self-hosted package source expressly designed for the Windows Package Manager ecosystem, enabling organizations and individuals to operate a private, fully portable repository that can be launched on Windows, Linux, or inside a Docker container regardless of whether the runtime is local hardware, on-premise virtualization, or any major cloud platform. Once started, the utility scans a user-specified directory containing standard winget manifests, indexes every application definition, and exposes the collected metadata through a lightweight REST API that the winget client queries whenever it installs or upgrades software, effectively turning static manifest files into a live, searchable catalog without additional infrastructure dependencies. Typical deployments include enterprises that need to curate and approve third-party titles before employees can fetch them, independent software vendors that wish to distribute nightly or customized builds to select customers, and hobbyists who simply want offline access to personal application collections; because the service is stateless and runs wherever .NET or a container runtime is present, the same configuration can be tested on a laptop, replicated to a Kubernetes cluster, and scaled behind a load balancer as demand grows. The program ships as a single executable with no installer, keeps all settings in environment variables for easy automation, and updates transparently when the underlying manifest folder changes, so administrators only have to commit new YAML files to version control to publish fresh packages. rewinged is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
