    alpkg is a tool for all your Alpine packaging needs. It can create a chroot with preinstalled tools in a matter of seconds, set up aports repository, and fetch/update packages. Most importantly, it provides a split layout via Zellij for easy editing/building APKBUILD files.
  • Alpine Linux: Brilliant Linux Distro

    A nice feature of Alpine Linux is that the package repository is a relatively straightforwardly-structured git repository containing build scripts for each package:

    https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/

    It's worth reading the contributor guide[1] before signing up and providing any fixes and improvements - and from there, hopefully it's a relatively familiar workflow for many developers.
