In our own projects we do this kind of thing... For Windows, you could use either the: 1. IzPack and the izpack-maven-plugin which produces a Jar that can be executed on Windows. IzPack understand Windows/Linux/macOS and can produce a GUI and/or CLI installer that works on all of those platforms: https://izpack.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IZPACK/pages/491628/IzPack+Maven+Plugin+Reference 2. NSIS and the nsis-maven-plugin which can produce a standalone .exe installer for Windows - https://github.com/DigitalMediaServer/nsis-maven-plugin
For a macOS DMG, you need to take a number of steps: 1. Use AppBundler to produce a macOS app from your Java project. We maintain a maven plugin for that, the appbundler-maven-plugin here - https://github.com/evolvedbinary/appbundler-maven-plugin 2. Produce a DMG from the macOS app using a number of macOS command line tools, we use the Maven Exec plugin for that - you can see examples in one of our projects here - https://github.com/eXist-db/exist/blob/eXist-6.0.1/exist-distribution/pom.xml#L1178 3. You then also have to cope with signing the DMG with an Apple Developer Certificate - we again use macOS command line tools via the Maven Exec plugin - https://github.com/eXist-db/exist/blob/eXist-6.0.1/exist-distribution/pom.xml#L1265 4. You then also have to cope with notarizing the DMG via Apple - we again use macOS command line tools via the Maven Exec plugin - https://github.com/eXist-db/exist/blob/eXist-6.0.1/exist-distribution/pom.xml#L1298 Step (1) can be run on non-macOS systems, and we have Linux alternatives for step (2), but as far as we are aware step (3) and (4) can only be done on a macOS system still. If you wish to include a JRE in your package for macOS the AppBundler has an option for this, see - https://github.com/TheInfiniteKind/appbundler. For Windows, I think you would need to incorporate jlink into your Maven Build process before supplying the resources to IzPack or NSIS. Kind regards. Adam.
