# egui-updater OTA self-update for [egui](https://github.com/emilk/egui)/eframe desktop apps. > **Status: 0.0.0 — name reserved, implementation in progress.** This release is a > placeholder; the API is not yet usable. Watch this space. ## What it will do The egui ecosystem has no dedicated updater (Tauri has `tauri-plugin-updater`; egui has nothing equivalent). This crate fills that gap: - **Check** — poll a version manifest endpoint. - **Verify** — check a [minisign](https://jedisct1.github.io/minisign/) signature against a public key you supply, before trusting any update. - **Download** — stream the artifact with progress. - **Apply** — silent self-replace on Linux/Windows; verified-download-then-open the signed installer on macOS. Endpoint, public key, and manifest format are **caller configuration**. The crate ships no server, no embedded keys, and no vendor coupling — it works against any compatible OTA backend (and is designed to be compatible with the Tauri updater's manifest shape, so an existing Tauri update server can serve egui apps too). ## License MIT.
