Hok is a CLI implementation of Scoop in Rust
🚧 CAVEAT: Under heavy development, interfaces may change without notice.
Assuming you have the original Scoop installed, simply run:
scoop bucket add dorado https://github.com/chawyehsu/dorado
scoop install dorado/hokNote this will add the dorado bucket I maintain to install Hok. Hok is experimental and it's currently only available in that bucket.
The command line interface is similar to Scoop.
