butler is *the itch.io command-line tools* - all by itself.

**It is used by:**

  * Content creators on [itch.io](https://itch.io) to push builds quickly & reliably

  * [the itch app](https://github.com/itchio/itch) for some network, filesystem and patching operations

## Documentation

Documentation for butler is available as a Gitbook:

  * :memo: 

Questions about butler are welcome on its [Issue tracker](https://github.com/itchio/butler/issues),

or, if the matter is private, [itch.io support](https://itch.io/support).

## Integrations

The following projects integrate butler as part of their workflow:

  * [itchy-electron](https://github.com/erbridge/itchy-electron) lets you package your Electron games for itch.io and upload them there

  * [gradle-butler-plugin](https://github.com/mini2Dx/gradle-butler-plugin) is a Gradle plugin for automatically installing, updating, and running butler as part of your build.

## Authors

butler was mostly written by [Amos Wenger](https://github.com/fasterthanlime), but wouldn't have

been possible without the work of many before him.

Amos would like to thank in particular Leaf Corcoran, Jesús Higueras and Tomáš Duda.
