Release Notes This release includes several new features, including the major introduction of mirrors that installers can fallback to. Simple hosting (aka mirrors) This release adds a new hosting method, simple, which supports static file hosting. This allows you to host your artifacts on the hosting provider of your choice so long as it follows a similar URL structure to GitHub Releases hosting. It can also be used alongside GitHub hosting; if you specify more than one hosting provider, the secondary hosting source will be used as a mirror. The priority is determined by the order of the keys in your config. For example, this will use GitHub first and fall back to your static host if GitHub is unavailable: hosting = ["github", "simple"] simple-download-url = "https://static.myapp.com/{tag}" And this will use your static host first and fall back to GitHub if necessary: hosting = ["simple", "github"] simple-download-url = "https://static.myapp.com/{tag}" For more information, see the docs. Note: currently, dist won't upload artifacts to static hosts; it expects you to handle that, either manually or via writing a custom job.

• impl @Gankra Add "simple" hosting style
• impl @mistydemeo feat(homebrew): mirror support with multi-urls Disabling npm-shrinkwrap.json for npm installers Currently, the npm installer includes an npm-shrinkwrap.json to specify the exact versions of its runtime dependencies as used at the time dist was released. Since some users would prefer looser dependency specification, this release provides an option to disable this. For more information, see the docs. npm-shrinkwrap = false
• impl @mistydemeo feat: option to skip npm-shrinkwrap.json generation Configurable build directory for generic projects Until now, generic (non-Rust) project support has assumed that artifacts are always written to the root of the project directory. This path is now configurable using the out-dir setting in your dist.toml. For example, if your project generates a binary named example in a subdirectory called build, you can specify: binaries = ["example"] out-dir = "build"
• impl @CatBraaain support out_dir in config Fixes
