Hello Oblivion,

Thank you for your message! It is nice to know that GitHub Actions is an alternative to CircleCI. So far, I don't observe any issues with CircleCI, so probably it is not worth migrating to something else. Also, we don't need an automatic release process on GitHub since we are publishing our releases in other places.

Moreover, I just noticed that you managed to build your app on Windows using the regular U++ distribution. I will probably do the same for the main U++ repo. The only thing I would change in your implementation is instead of basing it on ultimatepp.org:

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://www.ultimatepp.org/downloads/upp-win-17490.7z" -OutFile "upp-win.7z"

I would download from GitHub to not put a strain on our infrastructure:

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://github.com/ultimatepp/ultimatepp/releases/download/2024.1.1/upp-win-17459.7z" -OutFile "upp-win.7z"

U++ - one framework to rule them all.
