1. OneGet – A Linux Style Package Manager
Linux style package manager in Windows is one of the most anticipated features, and finally Microsoft introduced a Package Management Framework called OneGet into the PowerShell.
This unified interface makes it easy to discover, install, uninstall and manage the Windows software via the common cmdlets and APIs. Moreover, OneGet itself is an open source project at Microsoft center, and MS also has plans to integrate OneGet deeply into the Windows Update system.
