Overview
Portable package manager
Written in under 1000 lines of POSIX shell with an emphasis on portability. Requires only a POSIX environment, curl, and git.
Bus factor of zero
Designed to be maintainable by a single person. No mandatory infrastructure; just a few Git repositories. Upstream is optional.
Less software
Fewer moving parts means fewer bugs and security issues, and a system that’s easier to fully understand.
User choice
No lock-in: freely mix shells, core utilities, init systems, device managers, and more. Alternatives extend down to the file level.
