Open Source C Package Managers

CMake is an open-source, cross-platform family of tools designed to build, test and package software. CMake is used to control the software compilation process using simple platform and compiler independent configuration files, and generate native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice. The suite of CMake tools were created by Kitware in response to the need for a powerful, cross-platform build environment for open-source projects such as ITK and VTK. CMake is part of Kitware’s collection of commercially supported open-source platforms for software development and integrates with CDash to provide a comprehensive suite of tools. CDash is the testing server that aggregates, analyzes, and displays the results of software testing processes submitted from clients located around the world.

MacPorts is an open-source package management system for macOS that simplifies the process of installing, compiling, and managing open-source software. The MacPorts Base is the core infrastructure that provides the command-line tools and framework necessary for managing ports, which are package definitions containing build and installation instructions. MacPorts supports a wide range of software and offers a consistent environment for software installation on macOS systems. ​

Older versions of EdiZon do not work on the latest Atmosphere. Extraction of game saves. Injection of extracted game saves (Your own and your friends save files). Uploading of savefiles directly. Batch extraction of all save files of all games on the system. Save file editing. Easy to use, scriptable and easily expandable on-console save editing. Lua and Python script support. Built-in save editor updater. On-the-fly memory editing. Cheat Engines like RAM editing. Freezing of values in RAM via Atmosphère's cheat module. Interface for loading, managing, and updating Atmosphère cheats. All packed into one easy-to-use and easy-to-install Homebrew.

rpm-ostree is a hybrid image/package system developed by CoreOS that combines the benefits of image-based and package-based systems for managing Linux operating systems. It utilizes OSTree for managing bootable, immutable filesystem trees and integrates with RPM to allow package layering. This approach enables atomic upgrades and rollbacks, ensuring system stability and consistency across deployments. rpm-ostree is particularly suited for scenarios where reliable and reproducible system states are critical, such as in containerized or edge computing environments. ​

This is a rewrite/port of the popular freeware game Cave Story for Sega Mega Drive/Genesis. It should work on any console or emulator. The main story is "finished", only little things and bugfixes remain. A fan port of Cave Story for the Sega Mega Drive.

Package manager for the C programming language. Expects libcurl to be installed and linkable. Basically, the lazy-man's copy/paste promotes smaller C utilities, also serving as a nice way to discover these sort of libraries. From my experience C libraries are scattered all over the web and discovery is relatively poor. The footprint of these libraries is usually quite large and unfocused. The goal of clibs is to provide stand-alone "micro" C libraries for developers to quickly install without coupling to large frameworks. You should use clib(1) to fetch these files for you and check them into your repository, the end-user and contributors should not require having clib(1) installed. This allows clib(1) to fit into any new or existing C workflow without friction.

OSTree is a tool that combines a Git-like model for managing bootable, immutable filesystem trees with a deployment mechanism for Linux-based operating systems. It enables atomic upgrades and rollbacks, ensuring system integrity and consistency. OSTree is particularly useful for scenarios where reliable and reproducible system deployments are critical. ​

Hermes is a software environment manager used for installing and uninstalling collections of software. While similar to a package manager, Hermes operates differently by defining the entire software stack in a set of package definitions alongside the source code, ensuring strict reproducible control over the software environment. It offers an alternative approach to tools like Homebrew or Docker, with similarities to Nix and Guix. ​

Bake is a build system and package manager designed for C and C++ projects, aiming to simplify the build process and dependency management. It allows developers to define project configurations in a straightforward manner and supports features like interactive builds, which automatically rebuild projects upon code changes. Bake's recursive build capability ensures that entire dependency trees can be built with a single command, streamlining complex project structures.​

pkg is the package management tool for FreeBSD, designed to handle the installation, upgrading, and removal of software packages. It provides a unified interface for managing binary packages, streamlining the process of maintaining software on FreeBSD systems. With features like automatic dependency resolution and package auditing, pkg ensures a reliable and secure package management experience.​
