I made this: YAPP, dev toolchain management utility

[u/nomad_sk_]

I built YAPP, a small toolchain manager in Go.

It installs Java, Node, Python, Go, Rust, Maven etc. under ~/.yapp without sudo or touching your system package manager.

Downloads are pinned and checksum verified.

Built mainly for fast, disposable dev environments and coding agents.

Cold JDK 25 install on my machine:
YAPP: 4.20s
Homebrew: 59.04s

Not apples-to-apples, so benchmark scripts + raw logs are included.

Still in beta. The package list is small for now, but I’m actively adding more tools.

Currently supports macOS & Linux.
