You need a browser to install a packages manager on Windows or Mac.

(Unless you’ve memorized the urls you need and can use curl)

Windows has WinGet now. It's probably already installed but if not, their install page says it can be installed from the Microsoft Store. It also has WSL for running Linux programs.

They couldn't create a tool without putting Win in it's name even :)

Guess we should add Lin to all the Linux package managers....

I swear, y'all will find anything to complain about Windows, lol. Not that it isn't sometimes justified.

That's true. :)

Both Windows and Mac come with package managers of sorts. Windows has WinGet and the Windows Store. Mac has the App Store.

That’s fair. App Store as the GUI equivalent of a package manager makes sense.
