Coldbrew is a “brew” style package manager for Linux distributions that offers the full power of the Alpine Linux aports repository with no root access required
Coldbrew is a bit of a mix of flatpak and homebrew. It uses a very lightweight sandbox (bubblewrap) mainly as a means of isolating dependencies. It aims to server a similar goal as homebrew, but without the PATH issues homebrew brings (see: https://invent.kde.org/kde-linux/kde-linux/-/merge_requests/408)
Example Usage:
coldbrew install neovim # install the package
coldbrew run nvim # run nvim
coldbrew wrap nvim # create a wrapper to type less
nvim # run nvim
