The MacPorts Project is an open-source community initiative to design an easy-to-use system for compiling, installing, and upgrading either command-line, X11 or Aqua based open-source software on the macOS.
MacPorts, formerly DarwinPorts, is a package manager for macOS and Darwin.
It is an open-source software project that aims to simplify the installation of other Open Source software.
Fink #
- The Fink project wants to bring the full world of Unix Open Source software to Darwin and Mac OS X.
- We modify Unix software so that it compiles and runs on Mac OS X (“port” it) and make it available for download as a coherent distribution.
- Fink uses Debian tools like dpkg and apt-get to provide powerful binary package management. You can choose whether you want to download precompiled binary packages or build everything from source.
