What is Winget (Windows package manger) and how to use it ?

🔧 What is Winget?

Winget is a command-line tool developed by Microsoft that allows you to install, upgrade, configure, and uninstall applications directly from your terminal.

Think of it like apt on Ubuntu or brew on macOS—but for Windows.

It was officially released with Windows 10 (version 1809 and up) and is included by default in Windows 11.

🚀 Why Use Winget?

Using Winget can seriously improve your workflow. Here's why:

• ✅ Faster installs – No need to open a browser and hunt for installers.

• ✅ Scriptable setups – Install all your favorite apps with one script.

• ✅ Silent installs – No annoying pop-ups or next-next-next wizards.

• ✅ Batch management – Easily upgrade or uninstall software from the terminal.
