Application bundle value?

[byjrack]

Would like to have a first party feature in winget that would allow for groups/profiles/collections of instances in winget via manifest. These are not explicit dependencies, but just organizational goals and operational simplification. It's not rocket science to string together multiple winget calls in a single script, but like to get a declarative artifact and the ability to reference it via the command line and future Intune Company Portal integration.

Would this be valuable to others?

I'm not sure if I fully understand the request, but couldn't this be achieved with the winget import and winget export commands?
You can create a json file declaring the packages to be included in a bundle, and then let others in the organization
use winget import on that json file and install the packages in the bundle.

No I think you got me. I completely missed the intent of that arg. I need to test things out, but reading the description it seems like it should work. Some of the scoping of the installs I need to toy with, but should get me most of the way there.
