Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/LiveContainer/LiveContainer/issues/306

Installation of live container could be more convenient than having to manually go to github, download the latest ipa and then install it. Repos are a one-click solution to update apps.

Creating an altstore / esign repo for easy installation would appeal to wider audiences (and therefore help fix bugs faster, if it‘s easier to install the nightly build).

I suggest 2 apps in the repo: stable & nightly

We already have a source. It's https://raw.githubusercontent.com/khanhduytran0/LiveContainer/refs/heads/main/apps.json

I‘ve tested in on the latest sidestore beta (0.6.0) and I‘m getting this error about incorrectly declared permissions. I‘m not sure whether the source works on earlier versions of sidestore.
If it does, maybe keep this one in your mind until sidestore is out of beta.
If it doesn‘t, maybe fix it.

I'm already aware of this. SideStore 0.6.0 adapted AltStore 2.0 features which contains the requirement that all permissions and entitlements should be explicitly declared in repo. I'll fix this soon. Please directly use the ipa from Releases section for now.

Do you believe we could enable the addition of sources to LiveContainer for a convenient installation process, similar to Sidestore but integrated directly within LiveContainer?

Currently, I manually download the IPA files and then install them through the + button within LiveContainer.

@smailpouri I don't use repo so I'm not willing to add this. We welcome any pr on this feature.
