wcom-getitup 2026.8.30.7

wcom-getitup

A .NET global tool that presents an interactive multi-select installer for Windows development environments. It reads an application catalog from a local content.json in the working directory, then runs the selected items via winget, PowerShell (pwsh.exe), or Chocolatey (choco).

The NuGet package is PackAsTool only—it installs an executable named getit. It does not ship a catalog; you supply content.json next to where you run the tool.

Requirements

• .NET 10 runtime/SDK line compatible with the package’s target framework
• Windows (install backends are Windows-oriented)
• winget, PowerShell 7+ (pwsh.exe), and/or Chocolatey (choco) depending on catalog entries

Install

dotnet tool install -g wcom-getitup

Update:

dotnet tool update -g wcom-getitup

Usage

Run from a directory that contains content.json:

getit
getit install
getit uninstall
getit --version

Interactive mode (default — no arguments): multi-select prompt. Space to toggle, Enter to confirm.

Command mode: arguments that match a catalog item’s Command dispatch that item. Items with BypassSelection: true skip the prompt.
