So I added support for more apps by implementing more extractors. This means in theory any apps which don’t need a pre-install or post-install should work.

To be more specific, I handle a few more properties on manifests. Those being extract_dir and innosetup, which inform how an app needs to be installed. I also implement 7zip and innounp as extractors to support more file formats which applications are distributed in.

Of course there’s still a lot of work before I consider this ready for public use. I need to create commands for some basic operations like uninstalling, updating and listing apps. I also need to handle shortcuts otherwise GUI apps can’t be accessed from the start menu.

Besides that I need to improve the user experience. As you can see in the video below mocha just sort of dumps everything to the console even if it’s not relevant. Help menus are also critical to get working properly.
