Cross-platform dependency manager using bash and cmake

👢 Cross platform dependency manager for developers - mulle-nat-stash/mulle-bootstrap

Cross-platform dependency manager using bash and cmake launched on September 14, 2016 with 47 votes, #1,562 of 3,744 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 10 years on.

In plain words

This is a dependency manager built with bash and cmake that works across different operating systems. It helps developers manage project dependencies without being locked into a single platform. The tool combines lightweight bash scripting with cmake's build system capabilities, making it suitable for teams working in cross-platform development environments. It launched in 2016 and is available on GitHub for those seeking an alternative to conventional dependency management solutions.

    I've created a GitHub Action for running commands on multiple platforms. This includes platforms that GitHub Actions don't natively support. It currently supports FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD. OpenBSD can run on x86-64 and ARM64, the other operating systems run on x86-64. Some of the features that are supported include: * Multiple operating system with one single action * Multiple versions of each operating system * Allows to use default shell or Bash shell * Low boot overhead * Fast execution * Runs on both macOS and Linux runners Compared to similar solutions like…
