simple-updater is a simpler copycat of node-webkit-updater.

In fact, simple-updater just:

Download the remote manifest.

Compare the version with your local manifest (using semver or your custom comparator).

Download, check integrity (using md5 hash) (and extract the .app from the .dmg on OSX).

Spawn the installer.

simple-updater, contrary to node-webkit-updater do not give the possibility to copy and replace the previous application. Instead, it's the updater responsability to do so.

Also, no tests have been written yet, you can use it at your own risk...
