iTorrent AltStore Source

[noah978]

So I've been trying to get more of the open-source iOS app developers to consider making their own AltStore Source before the feature eventually releases to the public build (No ETA on that as of right now) of AltStore.

But if you are interested in generating an AltStore Source, the devs behind UTM put together a combination of a github workflow and Node.js to convert github releases into the complete AltStore Source.

You can check out the repo for it and the UTM app it's used with.

Even if you aren't a fan of the automated approach, it would still be nice to have an iTorrent AltStore Source in the future.

Great idea, I already made my local AltStore source, just for test purposes, but link source with github releases is much cooler. Thanks for examples, I'll try to implement it!

@XITRIX any progress on this?

It'd still be a good idea to make your own AltStore source for automatic releases so that you can fully control the appearance in AltStore, but I will note that https://quarksources.github.io is now checking the iTorrent github releases (along with a slew of other apps) every half hour and will pull updates into the AltStore Source automatically,

@XITRIX now that AltStore PAL is available, are you planning to notarize the app and distribute it through that alternative store?

I've bought subscription for AltStore PAL today and right now in the process of reading documentation of how could I publish my app in thirdparty marketplace, so yes, I definitely going to try :)
