What is dbin?

dbin is a simple, Golang-based rewrite of the original BDL, it is like a package manager, but without the hassle of dependencies nor the bloat, every binary provided is statically linked. This tool is made to operate on Linux/Android systems, with plans to expand to other platforms soon, dbin is particularly well-suited for embedded systems, we support both amd64 & aarch64.

dbin can be used to run commands without installing them, which is something very useful to write portable scripts that bootstrap their own deps no matter on what system they're being run.
