InnoIDE

Authoring applications and packaging them in order to be distributed to the public usually depends on a development team and a comprehensive toolkit for getting through every stage. For the latter step, when it comes to putting all together as a whole, a utility like InnoIDE may be quite the smart choice.

This program packs a hefty set of features under a very well organized interface, which provides quick access to all the built-in tools and commands. Based on the Inno Setup compiler, this software solution accepts the scripts made with that install maker and provides the necessary editing controls to work with the contained code.

Each element that will be integrated in the final product can be customized in great detail and you can move from one section to another to define the options for file and folder settings, icons, registry keys, messages and a lot of other components.

For every single project you create or load in InnoIDE you can adjust some specific parameters that pertain to the appearance of the installer, the main application details or the compiler configuration. This program also makes it possible for you to choose the settings for compression, disk spanning, installation pages and logs.

The minimum system requirements, as well as the supported architectures can be specified, alongside uninstallation options, user and version information. Once everything is set in good order, a single click is needed to start the compiling process and package the code.

InnoIDE provides a very good environment for building an application installer, with plenty of customizations available and a friendly interface to access them. A fact that should not be overlooked is the ease of use because working with this tool will turn out to be a rather pleasant experience, for advanced users and beginners alike.
