### Nala - A Better Front End for APT

(Brought to our attention by Blueghost05)

Nala is a more user friendly front end to the apt command in Linux.

Nala adds color, progress bars and formats everything in a more human readable format.

This [Tech Hut Nala video](https://odysee.com/@TechHut:1/nala-is-apt-but-way-better:3) goes over the basics.

Here's [the link to get Nala](https://gitlab.com/volian/nala). If you scroll down the page you can find the terminal commands to install it under the Installation section.

You can install it with these three commands:

```
echo "deb [arch=amd64,arm64,armhf] http://deb.volian.org/volian/ scar main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/volian-archive-scar-unstable.list

wget -qO - https://deb.volian.org/volian/scar.key | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/volian-archive-scar-unstable.gpg > /dev/null

sudo apt update && sudo apt install nala
```

Judging from the logo, the Nala name, and the Scar repository, it seems they derived their name from "The Lion King" movie. 😂😂

Sidenote: We couldn't find a decent size Nala logo image for this post, so we had to redraw it from scratch in Inkscape.
