# Dino Windows Installer
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
To create the Dino windows installer you need this:
|
|
* nsis (e.g. `apt install nsis` on Debian)
|
|
* Dino compiled for windows in input directory
|
|
* logo.ico in input directory
|
|
* Download https://dino.im/img/logo.svg
|
|
* Convert it to ico (e.g. `convert -background transparent -define 'icon:auto-resize=16,24,32,64' logo.svg logo.ico` (requires imagemagick)
|
|
|
|
## Create installer
|
|
|
|
Simply run `makensis dino.nsi`
|
|
|
|
## ToDo
|
|
|
|
* Create a [good looking MUI Installer](https://nsis.sourceforge.io/Docs/Modern%20UI/Readme.html)
|
|
* Sign the installer
|
|
* Requires to [buy a certificate](https://comodosslstore.com/resources/free-code-signing-certificate/)
|
|
* Maybe there can be a [free one for open source programs](https://www.codenotary.io/with-codenotary-you-never-have-to-pay-for-code-signing-certificates-again/) - Not yet read thoroughly whether there is a catch.
