+# NPT
+
+> Nix Package Tool
+
+A (humble) successor to linux's `apt`, which makes life easier when using [nix](https://nixos.org/) as a package manager.
+
+This is a tool I'm using in my nix journey.
+
+## Requirements
+
+Make sure you have installed [nix the package manager](https://nixos.org/download.html).
+
+## Goals
+
+- Make it easy to transition from traditional package managers (`apt`, `brew`, `pacman`, etc)
+- Good and ituitive UX
+- Learn nix while using, this can display the commands executed.
+
+## Usage
+
+```$ npt --help
+Nix Package Tool
+
+Usage: npt <COMMAND>
+
+Commands:
+  install  Install packages for the profile, if no repository provided, it defaults to nixpkgs
+  update   Update all or specific packaages
+  search   Find a package in the registry, if no repository provided, it defaults to nixpkgs
+  remove   Remove one or more packages
+  shell    Open a shell with the given packages
+  help     Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
+
+Options:
+  -h, --help     Print help information
+  -V, --version  Print version information

+
+## TODO
+
+- [ ] implement `update` command
+- [ ] implement `shell` command
+- [ ] provide compiled tar's to speed up flakes
