Using Windows Package Manager Client (aka winget)
3 min readJun 10, 2020
Did you know that you can install almost every developer tool in Windows inside the command-line tool? Let me show you!
- Install App Installer in Microsoft Store
- Next thing - I opened PowerShell and install the fresh PowerShell Core and Windows Terminal
winget install powershell-preview
winget install microsoft.windowsterminalpreview
- No reason to use old dusty PowerShell 5.1. So, I close it and use Terminal (naturally with PowerShell 7.1 under the cover)
Now we talking!
- I’m dotnet developer after all. So, I couldn’t live without .NET 6
winget install Microsoft.dotnet -e (e for exact)
- Installing my note-taking app of choice (Joplin)
winget install joplin
- Install JetBrains Products now days easier with JB Toolbox, so
winget install jetbrains.toolbox
