Open Source Chocolatey

Chocolatey has the largest online registry of Windows packages. Chocolatey packages encapsulate everything required to manage a particular piece of software into one deployment artifact by wrapping installers, executables, zips, and/or scripts into a compiled package file.

Package submissions go through a rigorous moderation review process, including automatic virus scanning.

The community repository has a strict policy on malicious and pirated software.
