About

A graphical front-end for the Windows Package Manager, modelled on Ubuntu's

App Center. Browse a curated catalogue of 178 apps across Featured,

Productivity, Development and Games, search the whole winget repository, and

install, update or remove packages from one place.

Every install, upgrade and uninstall is a real winget command against the

local machine, and each one goes through a confirmation dialog first.

Free software under the GPL-3.0, the same licence Canonical publish Ubuntu's

App Center under. It is an independent Windows implementation that shares no

code with theirs, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Canonical.

Security

No known CVEs for App Center.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
