## What it is
Installomator is a single shell script that downloads and installs the latest versions of standard software on macOS, driven by a large collection of application labels. It is widely used by Mac administrators with MDM tools like Jamf Pro, Mosyle, Kandji, and Addigy to automate software deployment.

## Use cases
- deploy standard software to managed macs
- install latest app versions via jamf pro
- automate mac software installation from mdm
- keep mac apps up to date without manual downloads
- install pkg and dmg apps from a script
- self-service software installation for macadmins

## When to choose
- you manage fleets of macs with an MDM like Jamf Pro, Mosyle, Kandji, or Addigy
- you want a script-based way to install or update common macOS applications
- you need to deploy software without packaging each app manually

## When to avoid
- you need deployment for Windows or Linux machines
- you want a GUI-based software management tool
- you need to deploy custom in-house software not covered by existing labels
