Top 7 Rust Package Management Projects

Package Management

  1. pixi

    Package management made easy

    Project mention: Aurora: Maintenance-free, reliable and fast OS, stable like a Chromebook | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-03-30

    > none of the docs really mention this

    Searching for the sister distro you mentioned, this[1] was one of the first links I stumbled upon, which included a link to the ARM ISO[2] and checksum[3] along with this note:

    > No homebrew, they don’t have arm builds, we will include Pixi[4] instead, which is a nice package manager built on the popular conda ecosystem - there’s some good stuff in there!

  3. habitat

    Modern applications with built-in automation

  4. topgrade

    Upgrade all the things (by topgrade-rs)

    Project mention: The legacy of NeXT lives on in OS X (2012) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-12-22

    You can use topgrade (https://github.com/topgrade-rs/topgrade) to update system, homebrew, npm, python, cargo with only one command. It also works on Linux and Windows.

  5. sps

    Rust based package manager for macOS

    Project mention: Sapphire: Rust based package manager for macOS | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-22

  6. upt

    Universal Package-management Tool for any OS.

  7. rattler-build

    rattler-build is a universal Conda package builder for Windows, macOS and Linux (like conda-build but faster)

    Project mention: Zb: An Early-Stage Build System | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-09-19

    We're working on rattler-build (https://github.com/prefix-dev/rattler-build/) - which is a build system inspired by Apko / conda-build and uses YAML files to statically define dependencies. It works really well with pixi (our package manager) but also any other conda compatible package managers (mamba, conda).

    And it has Windows support, of course. It can also be used to build your own distribution (e.g. here is one for a bunch of Rust utilities: https://github.com/wolfv/rust-forge)

  8. hok

    CLI reimplementation of Scoop in Rust

    Project mention: Hok: A CLI Implementation of Scoop in Rust | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-11-06
