Packaging UWP app with sideloading
Can someone help me package my uwp app? I come from android background so windows isn't really my strong suite. However I developed a UWP app and I would like to share it with my community but I don't have a Microsoft developer account yet. And packaging with sideloading makes the app uninstallable without developer mode enabled on windows device. Can someone guide me on how to package my app so that my community could install it and use?

afaik you would need to sign the app package with a proper signing cert, which are not cheap
and also a pain in the ass (the CAs only send them out on hardware tokens now)
I suppose you could also self sign and distribute the cert, but users would need to install that separately
