Chocolately is a package manager for Windows, which you can see here:

https://chocolatey.org/

Chocolatey NuGet is a Machine Package Manager, somewhat like apt-get, but built with Windows in mind.

It would be very suitable to have the current builds of tidy-html5 available through this package manager. At this point I am not sure the exact path to make this happen.

Discussion on Gitter at https://gitter.im/chocolatey/choco?at=55f5d0fe6cdc8ce37109e828 suggests "should be easy", and this helps issue #222 by making tidy-html5 available through one more package manager.

I pointed the Chocolatey people at

http://www.htacg.org/binaries/

and they noted that this is marked "experimental"

Note! This is an experimentatl binaries release! This is a WIP.

@vielmetti agreed, the word 'experimental' has long outlasted its usefulness, if there was one...

Try again!

Maybe need to push refresh to refresh your cache...

Thanks...

Rather than close this issue, it would make sense (if this doesn't belong in the main repo) to build another repo to host these files, e.g. the way https://github.com/atom/chocolatey or https://github.com/chevdor/ethereum-chocolatey .

It is, however, necessary to keep these files under revision control, so that if there are changes that they can be tracked.
