Description
In order to automate downloading of a specific platform build asset, it would be easier if the assets did not contain the build number. This would allow referencing the repository using the latest feature in GitHub.
https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/releasing-projects-on-github/linking-to-releases
To link directly to a download of your latest release asset that was manually uploaded, link to /owner/name/releases/latest/download/asset-name.zip.
