A cross-platform package manager GUI written in PyQt5 for Homebrew, Apt, Pip, and NPM.
pkgmgmnt is currently in the initial development stages and is not ready for real use.
pkgmgmnt is a graphical interface for various package managers across all operating systems, written in Python and Qt5 for cross-platform convenience. Back up from the command line and let the GUI do its magic.
No, pkgmgmnt is an extension on your existing package manager, designed to help you spend less time writing commands, and more time writing code. pkgmgmnt works with Homebrew, Apt, Pip, and NPM.
First off, you'll need Python 3, PyQt5, and FBS. Python 3 can be installed through your favorite package manager (brew install python, sudo apt install python3, etc.) or via download from python.org. Once downloaded, you can run python3 -m pip install pyqt5 fbs in the terminal to download the latest PyQt5 and FBS versions.
You can then run the program by going to the root of this repository and running fbs run in the terminal. To package and bundle an app, run fbs freeze and then fbs installer. Make sure to fbs clean before each freeze.
