Hi all, I created this site! The motivation was basically a version of ninite[1] for Linux. So very desktop-focused. I actually got in touch with the ninite folks, who used to run a Linux installer [2]. They said there wasn't enough interest and package managers are "good enough." I respectfully disagree on that point - I think that having the ability to point-and-click for the core, most important packages you want to install is really useful when you're spinning up a new desktop from scratch. I was running into this problem after basically doing ad-hoc setup for every new machine I turned on. Sure - I could write a shell script / list of packages and save it to my dotfiles repo, but where would the fun be in that? :) (Plus, package lists on every machine are different) [1] https://ninite.com/
