ZorinOS App Manager

GitHub release GitHub Release Date - Published_At GitHub all releases GitHub repo size GitHub last commit (by committer)



The ZorinOS App Manager is a tool which allows for easier installation of packages which you do not want to go hunt down what you need. It also includes some automated processes such as a pre-configured Netplan template for automatically managing network adapters.

On top of all the apps and tweaks provided, this script also gives the user the ability to install ZorinOS Pro Layouts which includes the Windows 10/11, and MacOS layouts.

If you need a one-stop interface for installing your most needed programs, give the manager a spin if you're looking to save a bit of time.

Add Repo To Sources

If you wish to add the Zorin repo to your computer's repository / /etc/apt/sources.list file:


Copy the command below into your Terminal:

sudo add-apt-repository -y "deb [arch=amd64] https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Aetherinox/zorin-apt-repo/master focal main"

Change amd64 to your device's architecture with any of the following:

  • amd64
  • arm64
  • i386

Be aware that most packages hosted in this repo are for amd64, so your desired package may not be available if you're running any other.

You can view what architecture your device is on by executing the following command in Terminal:

dpkg --print-architecture



Using Repo

Once you have added the repo to your /etc/apt/sources.list, execute the command:

sudo apt-get update

Your device should get a list of the latest packages available. You can then search for a package by executing:

grep -h -P -o "^Package: \K.*" /var/lib/apt/lists/*zorin-apt-repo*_Packages | sort -u

The above command will show you a list of all packages available from our repo.

Install a package by using

sudo apt-get install <packagename>

If you decide to use the Zorin App Manager in this repo, it will fetch the packages automatically.
