Caution
THIS IS NOT RELEASE READY YET. If we happen to upload any release, do not download it, it's probably not expected to work properly.
We'll remove this banner and reset the repo's commit history once ready to go live.
Konbini, Your convenience store.
Konbini is a package manager and software center meant to provide the most easy, beautiful, and straightforward experience to both users and developers.
Bureaucracy-less publishing. You only need one Pull Request to register as a developer, then one Pull Request to publish your package. Any update you publish will be instantly available (if you publish correctly, of course, which is also easy). No need for making another PR for each version like WinGet or Nix do.
Aliasing, a feature unique to Konbini, lets you have WinGet, Nix, APT, or Homebrew packages available from Konbini. This way, if the user attempts to install the package, it'll be automatically installed with the package manager that should be used instead, and will let it manage updates. Package managers are installed under demand (if supported and the users allows to), making it the most seamless possible.
This also benefits developers, as they can now get a frontend link to share with their users.
Konbini requires all executables to be digitally signed using PGP, and to be hashed using the SHA3-512 hashing algorithm, ensuring secure distribution. These can be generated using Konbini itself, via kbi sign and kbi hash respectively.
Furthermore, we periodically scan every package with antivirus software in a transparent manner. Learn more.
Konbini removes the need to use different publishing methods depending on the platform (this means publishing foo.exe to one store, then foo.flatpak to another one), by supporting all major platforms, including both x64 and ARM in macOS and Linux.
Run kbi once installed; you'll be shown a list of available commands and a brief description of what do they do.
Developers must compile (via bun run build) Konbini before execution - this is because Konbini relies on elevation in order to function, so bun . <command> usually won't work as it should.
Head to our website. It's just a frontend, similar to Flathub, you'll still need the CLI to be installed anyway.
Konbini is brought to you by @ZakaHaceCosas and published under the name of "Hana" (this GitHub organization and a yet-to-be-born company).
A huge "thank you" to MrSerge01, Dimkauzh, and especially pico190 for helping out.
Also, thanks to Vercel, BunJS, Upstash, and ClamAV; the software that powers Konbini.
