Chocolatey Software

Chocolatey is software management automation, it is a package manager for Windows - managing internal and external software is a breeze with Chocolatey! Chocolatey is a single, unified interface designed to work with all aspects of managing Windows software using a packaging framework that understands both versioning and dependency requirements. Chocolatey packages encapsulate everything required to manage a particular piece of software into one deployment artifact by wrapping installers, executables, zips, and scripts into a compiled package file. Chocolatey packages can be used independently, but also integrate with configuration managers like SCCM, Puppet, and Chef. Chocolatey is trusted by businesses all over the world to manage their software deployments on Windows. You’ve never had so much fun managing software!

Chocolatey is a package manager that can also embed/wrap native installers and has functions for downloading and checksumming resources from the internet - useful for when you have public packages, but don't have distribution rights for the underlying software that packages represent (seen all the time with publicly available packages on the community repository).

Chocolatey. Sweet package!
