View History

Overview

Scoop is a command line installer for Windows for easy installation of applications. Simply open a PowerShell window and run

scoop install https://bitbucket.org/jonforums/uru/downloads/uru.json

While uru is currently deciding how best to utilize scoop, uru's latest scoop manifest file uru.json will also be distributed as a download to allow local installs.
