  • winstall

    A web app for browsing and installing Windows Package Manager apps.

    • People mentioned Winget and no doubt Winget is awesome (it grabs applications directly from the github of the app instead of a central repository that got packaged and may or may not be updated), but Winstall is very nice for installing large amounts of apps. Winstall is just a web front end for winget that can make a script for you with all the apps you want to install. I use this whenever installing Windows on a new computer (or re-installing).

  • sixel-tmux

    sixel-tmux is a fork of tmux, with just one goal: having the most reliable support of graphics

    • If you want some crazy shit like sixels or italics and ligatures, try msys2 that's what I've used for the screenshot. The only thing comparable on Linux in term of features is xterm and, that's another story.

  • winget-cli

    WinGet is the Windows Package Manager. This project includes a CLI (Command Line Interface), PowerShell modules, and a COM (Component Object Model) API (Application Programming Interface).

  • sixel-testsuite

    Test suite for ANSI (color, attributes) and sixel support

    • If you want some crazy shit like sixels or italics and ligatures, try msys2 that's what I've used for the screenshot. The only thing comparable on Linux in term of features is xterm and, that's another story.

  • Chocolatey

    Chocolatey - the package manager for Windows

    • If you haven't already, you can use winget (probably installed already) and chocolatey on Windows.
