About:
ZXPInstaller is a command-line utility designed to simplify the installation and management of Adobe Exchange Panel (ZXP) extensions. It bypasses the need for Adobe's Creative Cloud desktop app, allowing developers and users to install extensions directly via the terminal. This tool is particularly valuable for automating setups and managing extensions in headless or CI/CD environments.
Key Features:
  • Command-line interface for direct ZXP installation
  • Bypasses Creative Cloud desktop requirements
  • Supports automation and scripting workflows
  • Cross-platform compatibility (macOS, Windows, Linux)
Use Cases:
  • Automating Adobe extension installations in CI/CD pipelines
  • Installing extensions on systems without Creative Cloud desktop UI
  • Managing multiple extensions for development environments
Alternatives:
  • Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop – Official GUI method; required for some extensions but lacks CLI automation capabilities
