📋 Description
TIL Microsoft are currently previewing winget: a package manager for Windows (a bit like Chocolatey or Scoop, but first-party). https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli This might gain some traction, or it might be bit of a zune but the fact that it is the MS "blessed" solution to a real problem does make this noteworthy.
