# Package Manager `deft/package` is the package-manager TUI app: a Deftlet panel over the native `pkg/*` primitives, with tabs for Standard, Fund Me, and Installed packages. It is a nested package inside stdext and mounts as its own top-level package.

import "deft/package"

The manifest (`tags @{ "app" }`) makes it discoverable by the launcher; it is not normally imported as a library. ## Keys | Key | Action | |---|---| | `Tab` / `Shift+Tab` | Cycle Standard / Fund Me / Installed | | `↑` / `↓` | Navigate rows | | `Enter` | Install (Standard), show fund info (Fund Me), uninstall (Installed) | | `u` | Edit the registry URL (empty resets to the local registry) | | `r` | Refresh from the registry | | `g` | Toggle global install | Screen layout at a glance: retro screenshot. ## Underlying API The panel is a view over the native `pkg/*` functions, usable directly from scripts:

set installed [pkg/list]                       # installed + dev packages
set avail     [pkg/available]                  # registry catalog
set info      [pkg/info "deft/editor"]

[await [pkg/install "deft/sheet"]]
[await [pkg/install "deft/editor" %{ :global true }]]
[pkg/uninstall "deft/editor"]
[pkg/set-registry "http://127.0.0.1:3001/"]

Installs land in the project's `.deft/packages` by default, or the user-level packages root (`.deft` under `$DEFT_HOME` / `~/.deft`) when global install is on. Tarballs are fetched from `<registry>/packages/<name>/<version>.tar.gz`. ## See Also - Packages — manifest fields, identity, install layout - Prelude — `:pkgs` search roots - Launcher — how the app is discovered and opened
