I am not sure to follow for "easier app installation"? You download installer, then yes yes yes, then BAM you have the application running
Also can drag the application file into Application folder.
What's complicated about it
- al_borland 2y agoThe more intuitive approach would be to find your sources.list file and add the URL to the repo that houses the app you want to download, I trust any user already knows this by heart. Then open up the terminal and issues the commands to pull the latest data from that newly added repo, and then type another command to install it, I trust any user already knows the proper name to type here when installing. If the app in question doesn’t exist prepackaged in a repo, go ahead and build it from source. What could be be easier than that /s I will admit the dragging the app to the applications folder does trip up a lot of new users. A well designed visual in the dmg can solve this, and the App Store eliminates the problem completely, which is likely where were most new users are getting their software on macOS. If the App Store is so bad, why would Linux has copied it… Modern Linux has seemingly taken a lot of ideas from macOS in an effort to make it more appealing to end users.
