Description

@dstranathan

Please provide a .pkg installer alongside your existing.zip and .dmg options. From an IT perspective, installing from a pkg allows full support from Apple and MDM providers like Jamf, etc.

A .zip or .dmg can't be deployed remotely or be automated. But a pkg can be deployed remotely and it creates a receipt for the installation for historical and QA purposes.

A pkg is a much more robust installation method than a simple .zip file for enterprise and academic IT teams.

A pkg can be built using free tools like Jamf Composer, for example.
