Description

Please add poetry to the winget package manager.

Currently, installing poetry requires pasting an install script into a powershell Window, and possibly manually modifying the PATH. This is inconvenient at best, and difficult to guide another person to do. winget is Microsoft's open source package manager and already has thousands of packages, including all versions of Python.
