Integrations
Finally, you need to integrate DBLSQD into your application.
You can either build your own update experience and manually handle the Feeds provided by DBLSQD or use one of our ready-to-use solutions.
Manual integration
Thanks to our JSON and XML feeds, it is very easy to manually retrieve and parse update information for your application.
This means you can use DBLSQD with any framework and programming language as long as there is some way to process JSON or XML.
This is our drop-in UI for Qt/C++ on macOS, Windows and Ubuntu.
We currently also have a drop-in solution for Electron and SDKs for additional platforms are in the works.
SDK & Drop-in UIs
An even more convenient solution is using our SDK and drop-in UIs
Currently, there are solutions for the following platforms:
C++/Qt
We have an SDK for C++/Qt that features a drop-in GUI and classes for building your own custom update experience.

Electron
DBLSQD is great with Electron! You can either use our drop-in UI, build a
custom solution with the SDK or use the Squirrel feeds with
electron.autoUpdater.

macOS/Sparkle
If you’re already using Sparkle or creating a new macOS application, you can use DBLSQD with the Sparkle framework.
