✨ Features

🧩 Visual plugin editing Open supported configs and work through a desktop UI instead of hand-editing raw JSON files.	🔐 RustCenter sign-in Use your RustCenter account for desktop access, plan checks, and entitlement-aware app behavior.	⚡ Built-in updater The app can detect new signed releases through the RustCenter update channel and GitHub Releases.
💾 Safer config workflow Make changes visually and reduce the risk of breaking files with manual syntax mistakes.	🛠️ Expansion-ready The app is built around expandable editors, so new Rust config workflows can be added over time.	🌍 Account links Open dashboard and subscription pages directly on RustCenter when you need to manage access.
📦 Release-first distribution Stable desktop downloads are delivered through GitHub Releases instead of ad-hoc file drops.	🧭 Multi-server control (Near Future) Manage repeated config work across several Rust servers from one desktop flow instead of treating every server as an isolated manual pass.	📈 Server monitoring panels (Near Future) View RustCenter-linked server status, telemetry, and `ServerMonitor.cs` feeds beside the same config workflows you already use in the editor.

🧠 Why this app exists

Without RustCentral Editor ❌ Manual JSON editing everywhere ❌ Higher chance of syntax mistakes ❌ Harder to maintain multiple plugin configs across servers ❌ Desktop workflow disconnected from your RustCenter account and release channel

With RustCentral Editor ✅ Visual editing for supported Rust plugin setups ✅ Cleaner desktop workflow for repeated config changes ✅ Centralized account-aware access through RustCenter ✅ Direct path to new releases, multi-server control, and server-aware desktop workflows (Near Future)

🌐 RustCenter ecosystem

📦 Which file should I download?

🪟 Windows x64

• RustCentralEditor_<version>_windows_x64_setup.exe: best choice for most Windows users who just want to install and launch the app.
• RustCentralEditor_<version>_windows_x64.msi: better fit for manual deployment, managed installs, or environments that prefer standard MSI packaging.
• RustCentralEditor_<version>_windows_x64_setup.nsis.zip and RustCentralEditor_<version>_windows_x64.msi.zip: updater packages used by the in-app update channel.
• *.sig: signature files that validate updater and release-channel assets.

Normal user choice: setup.exe

🐧 Linux x86_64

• RustCentralEditor_<version>_linux_amd64.AppImage: the easiest portable Linux option for most users.
• RustCentralEditor_<version>_linux_amd64.deb: best for Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, Pop!_OS, and similar Debian-based systems.
• RustCentralEditor_<version>_linux_amd64.AppImage.tar.gz: updater payload used by the in-app release channel.
• *.sig: signature files for updater and verification flows.

Normal user choice: AppImage for portability, .deb for Debian/Ubuntu-style installs

🦾 Linux ARM64

• RustCentralEditor_<version>_linux_aarch64.AppImage: portable ARM64 Linux build.
• RustCentralEditor_<version>_linux_arm64.deb: ARM64 .deb package for Debian/Ubuntu-based ARM systems.
• RustCentralEditor_<version>_linux_aarch64.AppImage.tar.gz: updater payload for the ARM64 release channel.
• *.sig: signature files for updater and verification flows.

Normal user choice: AppImage for portability, .deb for Debian/Ubuntu-style ARM installs

🍎 macOS Apple Silicon

• RustCentralEditor_<version>_darwin_aarch64.dmg: installer image for Apple Silicon Macs.
• RustCentralEditor_<version>_darwin_aarch64.app.tar.gz: updater payload used by the release channel.
• *.sig: signature files for updater and verification flows.

Normal user choice: darwin_aarch64.dmg

💻 macOS Intel

• RustCentralEditor_<version>_darwin_x64.dmg: installer image for Intel Macs.
• RustCentralEditor_<version>_darwin_x64.app.tar.gz: updater payload used by the release channel.
• *.sig: signature files for updater and verification flows.

Normal user choice: darwin_x64.dmg

🧾 What most users should ignore

• latest.json: used by the updater, not by manual installers.
• .sig: verification assets, not something most users open directly.
• .zip and .tar.gz: usually updater and release-channel files rather than the normal installer a person clicks first.

If you only want to install the app yourself, start with the platform installer/package, not the updater artifacts.

🔄 How updates work

• The app checks RustCenter's update endpoint.
• RustCenter points the app to the correct release assets on GitHub Releases.
• Signed updater packages and .sig files are used to verify authenticity.
• Manual users can always download directly from the latest release page.

🖥️ Best fit for

• Rust server admins maintaining BetterLoot, BetterTC, Kits, HUD and similar setups.
• Server owners who want a visual desktop workflow instead of raw config editing.
• People managing several server configs and wanting a cleaner repeatable process.
• Users already working inside the RustCenter ecosystem.
