Summary

v0.12.4 landed on winget today (microsoft/winget-pkgs PR merged after sitting in moderator queue since the May 21 submission). Brings the docs surface up to date so new users discover the winget install path.

Three places updated:

  1. README.md badge row — new winget badge linking to the manifest tree in microsoft/winget-pkgs.
  2. README.md Install section — winget code block above Scoop. winget ships preinstalled on Windows 10 1809+ and Windows 11, so it's the lowest-friction install for Windows users new to Baudrun.
  3. docs-next/install.md — new Windows (winget) section between Homebrew and Scoop, with per-arch automatic resolution, "stable only" framing, polling cadence, and Update/Uninstall table rows. Pre-release channel section notes winget is stable-only.

Out of scope

  • v0.12.4 GitHub Release body got the same winget callout via gh release edit (release bodies aren't tracked in-repo, so out of band).
  • Track B (automating future winget submissions via vedantmgoyal9/winget-releaser in release.yml) is a separate PR — uses Zed's after_release.yml pattern as the reference.

Test plan

  • No MDX components in the new docs prose; pure Markdown
  • CI's docs build verifies the install.md change renders
  • Visual check on the deployed docs page after merge
  • Spot-check the winget badge renders correctly in the rendered README

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

v0.12.4 landed on winget after that release was tagged (winget-pkgs
PR merged this morning after sitting in moderator queue). The
install paths users see should reflect that:

  * README badge row gains a winget badge alongside CI / Release /
    Downloads / Rust / License. Links to the manifest tree in
    microsoft/winget-pkgs.
  * README Install section grows a winget code block above the
    Scoop one. Note that winget ships preinstalled on Windows 10
    1809+ and Windows 11, so it's the lowest-friction install for
    Windows users new to Baudrun.
  * docs-next install page grows a Windows (winget) section between
    Homebrew and Scoop, with the per-arch automatic resolution, the
    "stable only" framing, and the polling cadence note.
  * Update + Uninstall tables in docs-next gain winget rows
    (`winget upgrade` / `winget uninstall packetThrower.Baudrun`).
  * Pre-release channel section calls out winget as stable-only,
    pointing users to Scoop or direct download for pre-release.

No content changes elsewhere; this is purely a docs surface
update reflecting the new install path. The v0.12.4 GitHub
Release body got the same winget callout via `gh release edit`
out-of-band (not committed since release bodies aren't in-repo).
