OmniPackage is an open-source CLI that builds native Linux packages and hosts your own apt, dnf, zypper, and pacman repository on any S3-compatible storage or your local filesystem.
We had centralized software repositories long before AppStore. Why is distributing software for Linux still so hard? All the infrastructure is there: package managers, repositories, dynamic linkage. But it's hard to get it done, let alone done right on all major distros. OmniPackage streamlines the process of creating packages and managing your own repositories on S3 or local filesystem, or it can just build the packages without repos.
Inspired by Open Build Service (1), but it's just a CLI that can run anywhere, including Github Actions. Together with Cloudflare R2 free tier you can build your packages on GH and host repositories on R2 for free. You can use any S3-compatible storage, or none at all - local filesystem works too.
Compared to aformentioned OBS (1), OmniPackage is designed to be developer-friendly and easy to use as its primary goal. All configuration lives in your git repo. The documentation (2) and Claude skill make it easy to package your existing software.
