What does the update process look like for updating a jpackage install? Do they have to run the install process again?

For windows? You have to keep the same GUID, increment the version, and the re run the msi/exe installer
Choose yes to overwrite the existing install and it will uninstall the old version first

Is there no alternative? i.e. what if I got a list of changed jar files and then modified the jars in the folder for an in-app update?

yeah there are libraries that can help with that
for tornadofx, I think it's called FX Launcher
I've seen other libraries but don't have them bookmarked and can't even remember the names 😕

so fxlauncher sounds like what I’m looking for. Thanks 🙂
