🐧 Welcome to Linux & Termux! 🐧
🦁✨ Today we’ll dive into:
Installing & Using Nala 🦁✨
🚀Nala – a beginner-friendly replacement for apt
.
Think of it like this: 👉 apt = a regular taxi 🚕 (it gets you there, but not fancy). 👉 nala = a luxury ride 🚖✨ (same destination, but smoother, faster, and nicer to look at).
Let’s learn how to install and use it!
⚡ On Linux (Ubuntu/Debian & friends):
Linux systems often require sudo
(think of it as “Run as Administrator”).
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nala
⚡ On Termux (Android):
Termux doesn’t use sudo
, so you just use pkg
or apt
directly.
pkg update
pkg install nala
Nala can test and set the fastest download servers for you:
sudo nala fetch # Linux
nala fetch # Termux
💡 This makes downloads way faster!
Once installed, Nala works like apt – but cleaner and friendlier.
- Update package list (check for new updates)
sudo nala update # Linux
nala update # Termux
- Upgrade everything (get the latest versions)
sudo nala upgrade # Linux
nala upgrade # Termux
- Install apps (add new tools/programs)
sudo nala install neofetch # Linux
nala install neofetch # Termux
- Remove apps (uninstall)
sudo nala remove htop # Linux
nala remove htop # Termux
- Search apps (find by name/keyword)
nala search editor
📌 Quick Recap
- Linux needs
sudo
for admin power ⚡ - Termux = no sudo (just
pkg
orapt
) - Nala = a luxury upgrade of apt with colors, progress bars & cleaner output 🚖✨
👉 apt will get you there… but nala makes the ride smoother, faster, and prettier.
