Chocolatey[2] is a machine-level, command-line package manager and installer for software on Microsoft Windows. It uses the NuGet packaging infrastructure and PowerShell to simplify the process of downloading and installing software.[3]
The name is an extension on a pun of NuGet (from "nougat") "because everyone loves Chocolatey nougat".[4]
The choco command is used to start the Chocolatey command-line package manager.[5][6][7]
Compatible package manager
[edit | edit source]In April 2014, Microsoft debuted OneGet (renamed PackageManagement on March 20, 2015) alongside PowerShell 5. It is a free and open-source package-provider manager, which provides a way to integrate other package managers into PowerShell. OneGet was pre-configured to browse the Chocolatey repository.[8][9]
