    A command-line installer for Windows

    Scoop. Kind of a dev-oriented version of Chocolatey i.e. doesn't support as many consumer programs, but it also installs things in a very *nix-like way (everything in ~/Scoop/) which can cause problems on windows. I've avoided it.

  3. The sane way to manage software on Windows.
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    Chocolatey. This is primarily what I use to keep sys programs updated. For dev, if there's a native package manager (e.g. node/npm, php/composer, python/pip, etc) then ill defer to that. Also note PS core has it's own internal module manager, PS Gallery.
