Wtf does this do

PS5 FPKG Builder Pro is a Windows application, and this particular repository is not where its code lives. Instead, this repository exists only as a public release channel. The actual program checks this repository whenever it starts, looking for a newer version, and updates itself automatically if one is found. The README states clearly that the source code for the application is kept in a separate, private main repository that is not open to the public. What is shared here is limited to compiled release files, specifically an executable named PS5FpkgBuilderPro.exe, which a person can download from this repository's releases page. Because the source code is not available, there is no way to read through the underlying logic, inspect how the tool builds or handles files, or verify its behavior beyond running the compiled program itself. The README does not describe what FPKG stands for, what format it produces, or what steps are involved in using the tool once it is downloaded. It also does not mention system requirements, installation instructions beyond downloading the file, pricing, or licensing terms. Given how sparse this README is, the only thing that can be said with confidence from the text itself is that this repository serves as a distribution and auto-update mechanism for a closed source Windows tool called PS5 FPKG Builder Pro, and that anyone who wants to actually use the application would need to download the executable from the releases page and run it, since no other documentation, source code, or usage guidance is provided here.
