# prt > Package Manager for Windows ```plain $ npm install -g prt ``` ## Install Packages via `prt` Just like other Package Managers ```plain $ brew install node # MacOS $ apt-get install nginx # Linux $ npm install gulp # npm ``` ```plain $ prt install sublime_text ``` And then ```plain $ sublime_text # would open it up ``` Or if you want to spawn the app, you can ```plain $ prts subime_text # would not block ``` ## Mechanism Get-URL -> Download -> (Extract) -> Link-to-Path ## Todo & Cons - Async processing - Streaming download - ProgressBar for download - Version control - More packages to include - More testing - Build/cache files division - The implementation is very hack now ## Current Packages Included - `nw` (nw.js, node-webkit) - `electron` - `mongodb` - `sublime_text` - `ffmpeg` **We need your forks!** ## Why I Built this? Sometimes I need to help friends install apps, in Windows. And what we have to do is always: visit a site, click a link, download sth, and then extract it or run a setup... Holy shit! What if just a line of terminal command via homebrew, apt-get, etc?! So I determined to bring such a package manager to Windows. But as you see, we have very few apps now. It's the very beginning.
