Solseek
A TUI Package Manager for Solus
🌟Features 📑Requirements & Installation 📗Wiki 💪Contributing
Solseek is a simple terminal user interface that allows you to browse, search, and manage packages and drivers for Solus and Flatpak. Packages can be installed, reinstalled, updated, verified, and removed through the interface. It is built around the native tools ( bash, eopkg, flatpak, etc.) to avoid complications.
📣 Note: Solseek has moved to Codeberg!

The biggest need right now is the language files. If you are not as familiar with git commands on your computer, I have created a guide so you can use the Github website to make changes easily.
- Adding language file guide coming, but if you are familiar with Github, copy the en directory and contents and translate.

Solus and eopkg! Solseek uses eopkg natively to handle the packaging information and interaction. There was no need to write some system to extract the data as the Solus team has done a wonderful job already with eopkg and it allows me to simply wrap this tool around the strengths of it.
