today I am going to post about the 'apt' command, a lot of users use apt-get as a package manager for their Debian based Linux OSes, which is fine, but did you know that there is a nicer and more user friendly version of apt-get called apt(which is completely different and works separately but there are some similarities between them.
let's imagine you want to install a package, a and you don't know the name, you can easily use apt to find the package name and install it, you get the list of packages with the explanation and you can choose which to install
apt search vlc
installing command
apt install vlc
process of installation
or simply update your packages
apt update
there is a lot of things that you can do with the apt command, like remove packages, purge. and some other commands, use man apt to see more options
I personally prefer this command comparing to apt-get because it is cleaner and the output is more understandable
