    Sounds like https://0install.net which has been around for a while.

    Personally I prefer to avoid 'installing' anything: if something's written in Java, its launcher should reference some specific java binary; if something's written in Python, it should reference some specific python3 binary; etc.

    For example, my job is mostly writing Scala and building it with Maven; yet I have neither installed system-wide. Instead, they're just dependencies of the build script.

    The article mentions Snap, AppImage and FlatPak, but there is also a much older system called 0install (zero install) that was started in 2003 or so [1].

    I wonder why that never took off.
