Scoop «Extras» is the community-maintained bucket of additional manifests for Scoop, the popular Windows command-line installer; it contains packages and app manifests that don’t fit the stricter criteria of the main Scoop bucket. The repository is organized as a large collection of individual manifest files, helper scripts, and tooling to validate and publish new manifests, and it’s intended so users can extend Scoop with many community-contributed applications. Installation is straightforward for Scoop users: add the bucket with scoop bucket add extras and then install any manifest with scoop install <manifest>, making it quick to access a wide range of Windows command-line and GUI tools. The Extras bucket is actively maintained by a large contributor community, carries thousands of commits and many contributors, and uses an Unlicense license so manifests are easy to reuse.

Features

  • A huge searchable collection of Scoop manifests for CLI and GUI Windows apps
  • Easy install flow: scoop bucket add extras then scoop install <manifest>
  • Contribution guides, linting and test scripts to validate new manifests before merging
  • A deprecated folder to mark and track manifests that should no longer be used
  • Helper scripts to build, publish, and maintain the bucket and its manifests
  • Broad community governance with many contributors and frequent commits
