SoarPackage manager for Linux

Fast, modern, and bloat-free. Install static binaries, AppImages, and portable packages across any distro. No root required.

$curl -fsSL https://soar.qaidvoid.dev/install.sh | sh

Then add ~/.local/share/soar/bin to your PATH and run soar install neovim.

Universal Packages

Static binaries, AppImages, and FlatImages. One tool handles them all, sourced from the soarpkgs repository.

Fast & Efficient

Written in Rust. A pre-built binary cache means no local compilation, with parallel downloads and installs.

Distro-Independent

Works the same on Debian, Arch, Fedora, Alpine, or anything else running Linux. No system dependencies.

Secure by Design

Packages built on remote CI with auditable logs, verified using BLAKE3 checksums and minisign signatures.

Desktop Integration

Follows freedesktop.org specs for automatic desktop entries, icon scaling, and menu integration.

No Root Needed

Everything installs to your home directory by default. No sudo, no system changes, fully portable.
