[Feature Request] Add package to Winget #826
Description
Winget is Windows' native package manager. Chocolatey is an outdated package hosting method. It habitually hosts out of date packages, and people are moving to Winget.
As a side note: Winget can be managed using UniGetUI. Neat tool. Install it to see how things could be.

Any updates on this? It would be great to move everything to a single package manager especially since winget is supported by MSFT.

I've linked this with #1050 for Windows ARM64 package delivery. I'll keep this issue for Winget support generally, including x64. #1058 is a separate Chocolatey dependency problem; fixing that wouldn't by itself fulfill the Winget request.
