It typically requires several manual steps, such as adding official repositories to your `sources.list`, importing GPG keys, and configuring updates. In other words, you can’t always just run `sudo apt install google-chrome`.\n\nIn addition, many development toolchains deliberately avoid system package managers and instead provide their own installation methods. For example, Rust is best installed using `rustup`, which not only manages the compiler itself but also keeps toolchains and dependencies up to date. These custom installers are generally more reliable for keeping third-party software current than relying on distribution-provided packages.\n\n\n## Contributing\n\nTo add a new package, create a file `app_name.toml` inside `registry/`\n\nYou can add common instructions for all distros, or separate instructions for each distro.\n\n```toml\ninstall_system = \"package_name\" # uses apt on Ubuntu, pacman on Arch Linux\n```\n\n```toml\n[ubuntu]\ninstall_system = \"package_name_on_apt\"\n\n[arch]\ninstall_system = \"package_name_on_pacman\"\n```\n\nUse `search_pkgs.py` to find package names on various Linux distro repositories.\n\nInstall Papirus icon theme and run:\n\n```shell\npython registry.py \u0026\u0026 prettier -uwu src/*.json\n```\n\n`flatpak = true` to install using flatpak, `install_system` should be the flathub package name.\n`snap = \"classic\"` or `snap = true` to install using Snap. `install_system` should be the snap name.\n\n`install_command = \"bash command here...\"` for custom installers.\nWhen using this, add a `skip_if_exists = \"filepath\"` to prevent the installer from running again.\n\nAdd the package entry `\u003cPkg id=\"app-name\" name=\"App Name\" /\u003e` in `src/pages/index.astro`\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Faspizu%2Fnixite","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Faspizu%2Fnixite","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Faspizu%2Fnixite/lists"}
