As I have been working for the Developer Tools from Apple for quite a while now, I have really gotten into finding out about all sorts of nice things that others have created for the developer community. One of them is the Sparkle Framework. This framework allows you to automatically update your application via appcasts and deliver them right to your customers; just like Apple’s Software Update application.
So integrating and using this framework is just a charm. I really suggest that you use it! Although the framework works totally fine it really lacks a good documentation for those who are new to this whole developing community (or are coding in a different language other than Cocoa). So I thought I’d make a tutorial that should make life easier. I fiddled ages with the original documentation until I got it to work – which wasn’t that exciting.
BTW – The Foolworkshop (by K. Lawson) has also done a tutorial which includes larger images. Take a look at that as well.
