*Boxes* is now available as a chocolatey package. [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/) (or just "choco") is the
|
||||
popular package manager on Windows. If you have choco, you can now simply
|
||||
|
||||
<pre style="background-color: white;"><code>C:\> choco install boxes.portable</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
and *boxes* will be available on your system.<!--break-->
|
||||
|
||||
The choco package is maintained by us, and you'll get the updates, too.
