Yes.

I've found I can read about scary movies on Wikipedia's plot explanation. That way I can keep up with that part of pop culture without carrying the full weight of the movie in my memory.

I know I'm missing out on the true experience but it's best for my mental health. :)

Oooh, that sounds divine. What was the movie?

Good to know. I can't do scary movies. They stick with me for too long.

Sounds scary.

You can use the more verbose Sdk element if you want it to look more important.

However, do know that any of those libraries from NuGet packages can also bring along custom build scripts that will run in MSBuild doing whatever they want.

Sdk-style projects use that very mechanism to do their work.

It's just NuGet. This is the direction .NET moved years ago.

You're not wrong but have you avoided NuGet until now?

Yeah, it was a little painful to no longer build an install package for WiX using WiX. But the developer experience is so much better; it's hard to argue against the MSBuild Sdk.

And it's good you found the Quick Start documentation. So I'll get the team to add a blurb at the top of it for WiX v3 users that the MSBuild SDK is all you need now.

Yep. It just works. Pick the version you want (6.0.2 is the latest), then `dotnet build` or `msbuild -Restore`or build in VS. It'll do the right thing automatically.

The experience is so much better, I guess it seems too good to be true?

It's a bit different but I think you'll see it makes acquiring WiX very easy.

If you have suggestions how our website could better direct you to that information, I'm definitely interested in it.

Ahh, you don't really download and install WiX anymore. It's distributed as an MSBuild SDK. That's why the big orange buttons on our site say, "Get Started" and link to the documentation on how to use the SDK.

If you use HeatWave, creating (or migrating) a project handles everything for you.

Which software are you talking about exactly? HeatWave?

I'm biased, but an Open Source Maintenance Fee can change that.

OSMF? ;)

Ahh, and this is why pictures lie. :)

Maybe you could have a feed for the "real" bits on the side for those of us facing 9 months of rain and thinking the grass is purely greener on the other side. ;)

Wow, is it really that idyllic?

I don't think I could add enough quotation marks to show how little I agreed with the ref on this point. :)

TBF, he was doing it very early and very consistently (with Frei). To me, felt a bit like the ref was "reffing to the derby". It was fine.

Yeah, ref was visibly nonplussed with Frei taking a "long time" to put the ball back in play many times. He taps his watch several times at Frei throughout the game.
