AnyPackage.WinGet is an AnyPackage provider that facilitates installing WinGet packages from any compatible repository.
Your machine must have at least Windows 10 1709 or Windows 11 and either PowerShell 5.1+ or PowerShell 7.0.1+, and the WinGet CLI utility installed. It may be already installed on your machine, but if not, Microsoft's recommended method for installing WinGet is via the Microsoft Store as part of the App Installer package.

WinGet does not currently have an official module available on PowerShell Gallery, therefore this provider currently depends on a Cresendo module that is a best-effort attempt at parsing WinGet's output. Due to WinGet still being heavily in development, it's output patterns fluctuate regularly, making a Cresdendo-based implementation very brittle. As such, currently this provider should not be used in production scenarios.
Due to WinGet's ambiguous search behavior and the risks of unintended outcomes, this provider only allows searching of packages on remote repositories by exact package ID. Fuzzy searches and searches by moniker, display name, and tag are not supported.
