We will need to go through the full release ceremony to get this out to our users (release Spark, Station Core, Station Desktop). I am getting a bit tired of that, TBH.

I can do that dance 👍

We can think about simplifying the procedure step by step. What do you think about adding logic to core to always install the latest version of spark? Then we don't need to cut a new core release

We didn't have to create a new release btw, spark-api would just redirect to the new url. The only advantage we get with this release really is slightly lower latency

+1 to simplify this incrementally.

We can modify core to always install the latest spark version, but that's IMO not enough - we also need to periodically check for a new version of spark to trigger the upgrade. We will also need some way to allow SPARK to signal the minimum Zinnia version it requires - this will become important when we add more features to Zinnia and then use these new features in SPARK. Think of the "engines" field in Node.js' package.json file.

Right, it's not as easy as I initially thought 🤔
