> Can't you already do this with jpackage or graalvm to create native bundles?

With jpackage or graalvm you need a Windows machine to build your windows installer because it relies on 3rd party Windows tools for the installer. Likewise on Mac and Linux. Even worse, on Mac you need to Codesign and Notarize the app, which is painful every time.

> At least with jpackage you already get an installer, versioning and upgradeability.

With jDeploy, it will check for updates when the app launches, and will download them automatically, so your users are always on the latest version.
