Hi, I'm new to Tauri and i have been developing a simple app using Tauri for the past few days. I wanted to configure an auto updater similar to how electron does it. After reading the docs and if I am not mistaken, am i correct to assume i would need a backend server that is able to respond with the proper JSON file in order for the updater to work? Prior to using Tauri, I am using Electron-Builder and Github Releases to configure auto updates for my applications. As I am not planning to implement a dedicated release server anytime soon, may i know are there any methods i could configure Tauri to get updater working with just Github Releases? |

you can just add a json in a github gist and point the updater to it. |

Hi guys, is there a way to automatically generate the json file when the apps are built? When I do a tauri build and have bundles available, I would like to streamline the process of creating the update json file to then upload to my server. Currently I need to copy paste the signature found in the sig files to the json file manually. It would be great to have this done automatically. Then with an automatic upload to the server the build process would be really smooth. Unless there is already a build process or workflow that I am not aware of that takes care of this? |

Do we have to implement a update server? Is there a template we can use? I am looking at https://github.com/vercel/hazel, which should work for electron |
