I suppose I only have one qualm with this PR. Is there an official place to report issues with the Scoop install somewhere external to this repo? For example, the chocolatey install has a link to the chocolatey page for WT, so users who experience issues with the choco install can report them there.
Since we're not maintaining the scoop install or the scoop package, I'd rather not get issues here about people trying to install WT via scoop.
The (awesome) thing about the installation process of Scoop is that the problem almost never arises (if it arises) due to Scoop itself. Anything and everything is maintained in a manifest, see this https://github.com/lukesampson/scoop-extras/blob/master/bucket/windows-terminal.json. It's just merely using the release archives of microsoft/terminal repository. If at all there's a problem, an issue can be raised in the repository where this manifest is maintained, and that is lukesampson/scoop-extras. I can add an extra line here mentioning that the installation-specific issues can be reported in the aforementioned repository, if required. |
That would be preferred, thanks! |

Summary of the Pull Request
This adds an (unofficial) installation method for Scoop package manager users. Many developers using Windows (me included) use and love Scoop, so this would be a nifty addition to the Readme.
