Windows CLI installer

Windows 10/11 has a command line software installer! It’s limited to what’s in the Microsoft Store, but still very useful.

Go to the MS Store and install App Installer. If it’s already installed, make sure it gets updated. Then you can use winget on the command line:

winget install firefox

…for example. More info, including usage, can be found here. The search and show options are of particular interest.
