soar

Distro-independent Linux package manager for static binaries, AppImages, and other portable app formats.

Desktopfree

Soar is a fast, bloat-free package manager for Linux that installs static binaries, AppImages, and other portable formats such as AppBundle, FlatImage, RunImage, and Wrappe on any distribution. It doesn't build or host packages itself; instead it consumes metadata from repositories like the default soarpkgs, or third-party and custom repos, and adds desktop entries, icons, and shell completions automatically.
