Have a look here. Did you not search for the answer? That's part of the Arch(based) ethos. We tend to like to learn by reading whatever is required. :). Source: about 3 years ago
I was also looking for something nicer for Arch, but haven't found anything as nice as Nala. For now, I switched to pikaur, which at least displays updates in a much clearer way. Source: about 4 years ago
Nice, but this definately needs a dependency resolver, otherwise it can only install a fraction of the available AUR packages. Since you're already using python, you may adapt your whole code on top a another python-based AUR helper like pikaur. You maybe also could take at the dep resolver of my ABS project. It's python, too, maybe not as clean as pikaur's code but simpler and not too integrated. Source: over 4 years ago
I've been using pikaur ever since pacaur became abandonware and I'm very happy with it, can't recommend it enough. Sure, it's not implemented in Rust or Go so it's certainly not as cool as yay or paru but that doesn't really matter much to me, being an end user. I don't really care as long as it does its job, as advertised. Source: over 5 years ago

Https://flatpak.org/ does this on Linux and someone else already pointed out, MacOS does this with app store apps. I don't like handing control to Apple so I much prefer the FlatPak solution - you get very detailed and fine grained control over what each app can see and it works fairly seamlessly. It's still a bit technical - but not far from being user friendly even for a less tech savvy user. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
Features Fedora leads. Others follow. Systemd? Fedora pioneered it. Wayland? Fedora adopted it early. Flatpak? Fedora helped develop it. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago
There are things like this. The things I know of and can think of off the top of my head are: 1. Appimage https://appimage.org/ 2. nix-bundle https://github.com/nix-community/nix-bundle 3. Guix via guix pack 4. A small collection of random small projects hardly anyone uses for docker to do this (i.e. https://github.com/NilsIrl/dockerc ) 5. A docker image (a package that runs everywhere, assuming a docker runtime... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
GUI apps often come in Flatpak these days - which are sandboxed[1] like you are expecting. [1] https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/basic-concepts.html#sandboxes - https://flatpak.org/ - https://flathub.org/en. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
