Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

Hello addons & macros subforum! I hope you are having a fantastic day noon evening.

I was wondering how a person would go about actually MAKING an addon pack for their incredible streaming community to enjoy hypothetically.

Do I simply copy addon and saved variables folder and zip them?

well that's the easiest one and all addon packs / UI released for vanilla were published like that.

the alternative would be writing an external AddOn to configure everything and write the savedvariables on login.
which I tried with my ViroUI but the beta version I released could bug in some circumstances and I still haven't finished my new version which I started work on years ago.
