Every time a computer system is reinstalled, a bunch of software configuration development environments have to be reinstalled, and too much time is wasted on these meaningless repetitive tasks.
There is apt-get on Ubuntu and Homebrew on Macos. These are good package management tools. Usually one line of command is enough to install common software.
So is there a similar package management tool for windows, he came today.
Scoop, a powerful package management tool under Windows, installs common development tools with one command.

Installation conditions
PS: Now the computer of win10 can generally be satisfied, if you can't meet it, use Yisheng to upgrade the version of win10 system.

Change the default software address of Scoop
By default, the scoop software is placed in the C:\Users{your user name}\scoop directory, here to prevent the C drive from occupying the C drive too much, I moved it to the D:\Scoop directory. Just use the following command:
$env:SCOOP='D:\Scoop'
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('SCOOP', $env:SCOOP, 'User')
Note that at this time, move the original scoop program from the C:\Users{your user name}\scoop directory to your custom directory:

Add a third-party warehouse
Scoop is very powerful, but the number of software in Scoop's default software warehouse (main bucket) is limited. Therefore, we also provide us with a lot of buckets that can be used directly, just to facilitate us to install more common software with GUI. One of the most common buckets that I recommend everyone to add is extras, which basically covers what we are familiar with: all versions of Firefox, Foxit Reader, Geek Uninstaller, Inkscape, Snipaste, etc.
scoop bucket add extras
Then you can use scoop to install more other software under the extras warehouse, such as the screenToGif recording gif software that I commonly use when writing blogs, with one line of command.
scoop install screentogif
I believe everyone can master the use of scoop through the actual operation of the above tutorial, I believe you will love this tool.
This is the first article in a series of geek tools, and then I will recommend the tools that I choose from time to time that can greatly improve development efficiency, so stay tuned
