6 Best Windows Package Manager to Auto-Update Apps (2020)
Let’s start with PackageManagement, formerly known as OneGet. I really liked the old name OneGet so let us just pretend it is not renamed. It comes built into Powershell Version 2.0 though it’s not the official package manager. It’s still in the early phases but Windows would start pushing it sooner or later. It downloads the packages from repositories like Powershell...

6 Best Windows Package Manager to Auto-Update Apps (2020)
Based on the same concept of file parsing, we have AppGet. Instead of JSON, it works with YAML files and has a bigger repository of apps.

  • Windows Package Manager 1.1
    It has been admitted. This is what an 'extinguish' looks like after embracing the idea of a Windows package manager by interviewing the creator of AppGet [0][1] and then dumping him to skip the extend part to full on copy it [2] with no credit and bundling it in the OS. This is a rare straight extinguish after an embrace, especially in open source. [0] https://keivan.io/the-day-appget-died/ [1] https://appget.net/... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
  • Chocolatey
    One thing to keep an eye on is Microsoft's winget. Based off 'AppGet' but unfortunately MS don't prominently allude to winget's origins, although they have offhand mentioned it. Source: over 2 years ago
