#+Title:Tilde elisp package archive
#+Author: Crazazy
#+INCLUDE: ./style.org

I decided that I didn't want to interact with other people when
publishing my package, because somehow I'm antisocial like that
This means that there is now a new package repository available for
you to use
* Installation
  Usage of the repo is similar to how you'd install melpa and stuff
  #+begin_src elisp
    (add-to-list 'package-archives '("tilde" . "https://tilde.cafe/~crazazy/elpa/"))
    (package-refresh-contents)
  #+end_src
* Adding your own package
  Right now this archive is kinda barren, and the amount of packages
  is countable on 1 hand. You can help change that! Just send a mail
  to [[mailto:crazazy@tilde.cafe][crazazy@tilde.cafe]] with your package where it is located and if
  you have any special files that need to be put in there (or just
  send a whole [[https://github.com/melpa/melpa#recipe-format][MELPA recipe]], I use those internally anyways)
** What I'm looking for
   There are /some/ standards that I want to follow in order to give
   this package repository a more tilde-like or grassroots-style
   feel. Mostly this means:
   - Don't depend on melpa (prefer if you depend just on packages from
     [[https://gnu.elpa.org][GNU elpa]] but nonGNU is fine). The reason for this is that melpa
     is *HUGE*. You can seriously improve update time if you don't
     refresh melpa automatically, and it is not installed by default
     on an emacs system.
   - That's it! there used to be other requirements but they were just dumb.
