Cocoa Check for Updates

What is the best way to add a "Check for updates..." functionality to a Cocoa application? I saw a little framework implementing this but I'm not sure that's the better way.

Should I implement it from scratch?

Sparkle is the most popular way to do this.

There is also the lesser known update-engine which Google is using and developing.
