I'm a developer for a 3rd party company. We are looking to write a new plugin for Revit - I'm just looking for what other developers who write apps for Autodesk products use in terms of their installers (like the MSFT installer or InstallShield for example,)  When you download any exe and run it on your desktop, the ensuing screens with EULA, where to install, etc. -  what is that installer that you prefer to use?

I use Inno Setup too.

 

Here is a simple template to install the Autodesk bundle based on the RevitLookup: https://github.com/ricaun/RevitLookup.Installation.

 

I'm developing a system to create the bundle and the .exe using the InnoSetup, Nuke Build, and the Github.

 

I still need to improve the documentation and create the base template to make it easier to create the base project.

 

Here is the base NuGet project: https://github.com/ricaun-io/ricaun.Nuke.PackageBuilder
