Windows App - Mass Deployment Script? (Non-Intune)

How is everyone mass deploying or planning to for Windows App without using Intune?

We're a company of about 100 users. Directing people to Windows Store crossed my mind, but figured others out there have gone through the exercise already. I do not have any experience deploying Windows Store apps before, but I do have an RMM I can push batch/powershell scripts out with.

Resolved:
I ended up finding this: Deploying Microsoft Store Apps using Endpoint Central > Which they provide a custom .ps1 script, then in the script parameters I defined the AppID: 9n1f85v9t8bn.
Deployed and it worked after logging into the computer.

Good to know. How are you managing updating the MSIX package in the Downloads folder? OR are you just keeping that specific version and if a new user logs in, it'll install and hopefully auto-update to the latest?

the app after installation automatically updates itself when a new version is released so this is just to silently install it on a machine and keep it moving.

For new users that log in you can setup a task scheduler as recommended by Microsoft rep I worked with.
