One of the joys of using Debian and Ubuntu-based distros is the Advanced Package Tool (APT) which helps you to quickly search for packages online, then install, update, or remove them with a single command.
Another way of installing packages is using DEB files. You can find these on random sites across the internet, and to update them you need to re-download and install the newest version.
deb-get is a tool that aims to replicate APT functionality. You can use it to search dedicated DEB repositories and install, update, and remove software—just like APT.
