# How to create a webi installer
[](https://youtu.be/RDLyJtiyQHA)
This could be as simple as copying `_example`, updating the github releases
info, and doing a find and replace on a few file system path names.
## Skills required
- Basic Command Line knowledge (`mkdir`, `mv`, `ls`, `tar`, `unzip`, variables)
## Steps
1. Clone and setup the webi packages repo
```sh
git clone git@github.com:webinstall/packages.git
cd ./packages/
npm install
```
2. Copy the example template and update with info from Official Releases:
```sh
rsync -av _example/ CHANGE-ME/
```
- [ ] update `CHANGE-ME/release.js` to use the official repo
- [ ] Learn how `CHANGE-ME` unpacks (i.e. as a single file? as a .tar.gz? as
a .tar.gz with a folder named CHANGE-ME?)
- [ ] find and replace to change the name
- [ ] update `CHANGE-ME/install.sh` (see `bat` and `jq` as examples)
- [ ] update `CHANGE-ME/install.ps1` (see `bat` and `jq` as examples)
3. Needs an updated tagline and cheat sheet
- [ ] update `CHANGE-ME/README.md`
- [ ] official URL
- [ ] tagline
- [ ] Switch versions
- [ ] description / summary
- [ ] General pointers on usage (and perhaps "gotchas")
