Does the launcher update itself?

Quick question: With the new launcher being able to update Anki, changing versions has now become quick and easy. Great!

What about the launcher itself? Does it also have functionality to upgrade or would one need to still update it manually from time to time? I’m sorry I haven’t really seen this clearly spelled out in the previous beta threads and I’m not able to understand enough of the technical background to evaluate this myself.

The existing launcher should continue to work for future releases for now, but there may come a time when users need to download a new one - it can’t update itself.
