Mise installs itself as a static binary actually (but it's of course packaged in many registries), and while there are some third party registries it delegates to for some packages (aqua, asfd), most stuff I have installed is either built-in, or from PyPI, npm or GitHub, i.e. directly published by the upstream maintainers.

- esafak 4mo agoYou'll see that mise recommends installing itself exclusively through package registries: https://mise.jdx.dev/installing-mise.html https://mise.jdx.dev/installing-mise.html pypi, npm, and even github (through releases) are registries. curl | sh is an anti-pattern. It passes no security check.
- PufPufPuf 4mo agoExclusively? No, the very first option is the install script, which downloads and unpacks the correct binary for your OS from the Mise website: curl https://mise.run https://mise.run | sh ...which is the same way Homebrew is installed too.
- lachieh 4mo agoThere's always the chicken/egg problem of which dependency manager to install first, though. AFAIK there's no "trusted" installed for Homebrew on macOS though I might be wrong.
