scoop

Scoop is a command-line package manager for Windows. It allows users to easily discover, install, and manage software packages from the command line interface. Scoop applies a similar concept to Linux package managers such as apt-get or yum. Its goal is to simplify the installation process and streamline software management on the Windows platform. With Scoop, users can install and update software packages with a single command, making the process faster and more efficient. Scoop also enables version management, allowing users to easily switch between different versions of the same software package. Additionally, it provides a convenient way to uninstall software packages cleanly, removing all related files and configurations. Scoop maintains a curated list of software packages, referred to as "buckets," that users can access, ensuring a reliable source for installation.
