About WPKG

WPKG is an automated software deployment, upgrade, and removal program for Windows. It can be used to push/pull software packages, such as Service Packs, hotfixes, or program installations from a central server (for example, Samba or Active Directory) to a number of workstations. It can run as a service to install the software in the background (silent install), without user interaction. It can install MSI, InstallShield, PackagefortheWeb, Inno Setup, Nullsoft, other software installers or .exe packages, .bat and .cmd scripts, and similar, no more repackaging to perform software installation. WPKG is open-source software. WPKG can add great value to your Samba or Active Directory setup, as it allows you to perform software installation, updates, removal, etc. on your workstations. It is also possible to execute custom scripts on your workstations, like synchronizing time, setting printers, changing permissions, or adding registry entries.

Homebrew
Homebrew
(1 Rating)
The missing package manager for macOS (or Linux). The script explains what it will do and then pauses before it does it. Homebrew installs the stuff you need that Apple (or your Linux system) didn’t. Homebrew installs packages to their own directory and then symlinks their files into /usr/local (on macOS Intel). Homebrew won’t install files outside its prefix and you can place a Homebrew installation wherever you like. Trivially create your own Homebrew packages. It’s all Git and Ruby underneath, so hack away with the knowledge that you can easily revert your modifications and merge upstream updates. Homebrew formulae are simple Ruby scripts. Homebrew complements macOS (or your Linux system). Install your RubyGems with gem and their dependencies with brew. Homebrew Cask installs macOS apps, fonts and plugins and other non-open source software. Making a cask is as simple as creating a formula.

Silent Install Builder
Silent Install Builder
Silent Install Builder is designed with the purpose to help users create silent setup packages that allow them to install several applications on multiple computers. Packages generated using Silent Install Builder can contain multiple installers of different types, which are automatically recognized by the application. InstallShield, Inno Setup, Wise, and NSIS (Nullsoft Installer) are the supported categories. Getting accustomed to the application is not difficult at all, thanks to its intuitive, well-organized, two-sided interface. The left pane displays the components of your project in a structured manner, while the right side enables you to edit the properties of each item. Users can specify detailed information regarding their package, such as the product name, version, the manufacturing company, and assign it a small file description, as well as a welcoming message that is included in the final output. The location of the actual installer file must also be specified.
