Linux packaging, simplified^*

You compile,
we ship

Stop wrestling with RPM specs, DEBs, and PKGBUILDs.
One config, every distro, zero headaches.

Installation examples of a CLI and Desktop App onboarded onto Packageer.

How it works

Tl;dr

TOML file with a simple onboarding flow

Let us set it up for you via an interactive CLI flow and commit the resulting file straight to your repository. No need to learn yet another specification, unless you want to...

Just a single packageer.toml configuration
CLI autocompletion and man pages generation
Everything where it belongs (XDG Base Directories, /usr/bin...)

Re-use existing continuous integration

Add just a single step to your CI pipeline and you're now continually deployed too!
