Packagers Who Care
You trust us to just work and make your workflows happen. We take this job seriously and we go the extra mile on a per-package basis, for example:
Our
git
ignores.DS_Store
files by defaultOur RubyGems defaults to user-installs and ensures gems are in
PATH
Our
python
comes unversioned so the huge numbers of scripts that invoke/usr/bin/env python
actually workOur
pyenv
automatically installs the python versions it needs
Additionally, we insist our pkgs are relocatable, which is why we can install in your home directory (but this also means you could pick up the whole ~/.pkgx
directory and bundle it with your app.) We also begin packaging new releases almost immediately as soon as they go live using various automations.
We care about your developer experience, not ours.
