Windows Package

Definitions

1. A software package prepared for installation on Windows systems, often in a format expected by a package manager or installer workflow. In cross-platform distribution, Windows packages help software feel native to Windows users rather than ported as an afterthought.

   In plain English: A software package prepared for Windows installation.

   Example: "They prioritized a proper Windows package because asking enterprise users to unzip binaries manually was not a serious deployment story."
