Package Manager for Markdown
I'm working on a project that is intended to encourage folk to make markdown text files which can be bundled together in different bundles of text files using a package manager.
Question for coders; Which package manager would you suggest I use?
Main criterias (in order) are:
1. Easy for someone with basic command line skills to edit the file and update version numbers and add additional packages.
2. All being equal, more commonly and easy to setup is preferred.

ALERT! Shockingly, a package manager filled with amateur Lego pieces is dangerous! Who would've thought? 
But fear not, for we've got a 2,025 step guide on securing your digital sandbox. 
Because, clearly, complex problems need even more complexity!

Tinkered around the last couple days on my own dlang package manager & build system, and it finally can build simple apps (even with local, pathbased dependencies!).
Still in it's early stages, but it works (somewhow). Now I can start working on the registry software for it so packages can be hosted & explored online...
One thing I have from immutable (atomic) distros, and is how cumbersome is installing apps that require root permissions.
Supposedly you have to use Distrobox. Even that never worked for me. I always have to resort to `rpm-ostree` and then uninstall it so BootC can update the system. Every single time.

DBIN | A distro-agnostic package manager for Linux 
Interesting times in uniting all Linux distributions even closer after the likes (not package managers) of Flatpaks and Snaps.
◉Dbin only accesses the configs and binaries which user requests
◉Every binary that dbin has in its repositories entirely self-contained
◉Dbin doesn't use a database - it can even be used without installing it
◉Dbin marks the programs that it installs/fetches using XATTR
◉Currently 3105 packages in the repositories (things like Steam and Lutris already in)

I like buns speed but why is its syntax for anything so unlike any other package manager like yarn, npm, or pnpm?
like what would be npm run dev is bun dev --open
Then npm run build is bun --bun run build... and it fails if there is a build folder already there unlike the other package managers.
Do I just not know how to use it?

Pro #macOS tip for #developers: Never run brew install. Instead, add it to your Brewfile and run brew bundle.
Goodbye OPKG, hello APK! Starting in November 2024, OpenWrt's snapshots and future stable builds will replace OPKG with APK for better package management.

Did you know that #Windows has a package manager now?
If you want to finally learn Homebrew a bit better to properly manage packages on your machine, I wrote a post that might help!

I'm pleased that modern Homebrew has better defaults than it used to around auto-updating and cleanup. It also tracks less in its analytics.
For a bonus hot tip that's not included in the post: I like using `dust` to see which directories are filling up my lappy.

Wow the Python package manager uv looks really good ... and it's written in Rust! Why am I still hanging around with Poetry?! Gonna have to give it a spin sometime soon.
“Since v16.13, Node.js is shipping Corepack for managing package managers.”
What did I just read?!
