Hello everyone!

I like to introduce TerminalStore! TerminalStore is a App store for cli programs only. This is the github repo. It is licenced under the GPL 3.0. Feel free to suggest programs! (cli programs only.)

NOTE: Before running this command, make sure you are in your home directory.

Well, were you waiting for?? Install it using this command:

git clone {dead link} && cd TerminalStore && python3 setup.py

And start with this command:

terminalstore

TerminalStore has currently 54 apps you can install!

this looks pretty cool. i'll try it out on my toy server when i get some time. it never crossed my mind there was so many games available in the command line, which i realized looking through your source code.

So, this is for Debian-based systems only at the moment, right? I suppose it would be handy for people who aren't yet comfortable installing applications using apt install but it seems kinda limited so far compared to these:

Thank you! I'm currently working on version 0.2, and that one is going to have a lot more games

Yea, its only debian at the moment. If i have an 'complete' version, i will be porting it to other linux distros, and maybe even macos. Its very limited with 8 apps in version 0.1. I'm adding a lot more apps to 0.2 though.

"awesome CLI apps" by agarrharr Looks really interesting! It is not really an app market like TerminalStore, but it is very helpful as an resource list for adding new apps!

nice! one suggestion, you may want to look into keeping the application list & package names separate from the python code at some point, otherwise the code will grow larger with every app and it could become unwieldy if the logic needs to change.
