GitHub Updater is an Open Source project by Andy Fragen. It’s a simple plugin to enable automatic updates for your GitHub, Bitbucket, or GitLab hosted WordPress plugins, themes, and language packs. It also allows for the remote installation of plugins or themes. GitHub Updater has many advanced features such as branch switching and RESTful endpoints that can be used with webhooks.

GitHub Updater is and has been a project that has taught me much and more importantly helped others with their work. Try it out and see if it doesn’t save you time and energy with your own development projects and clients.
