Shelly 3.0 has been released today as a major update for this open-source and free pacman alternative for Arch Linux distributions that introduces a completely revamped experience, new features, and many improvements.

Highlights of Shelly 3.0 include a revamped codebase for the package management, CLI and GUI interfaces, and keyring tool from C#/.NET to Zig, for fast, ahead-of-time compiled native executables, more predictable memory and resource lifetimes, and better compile-time checking at the C library boundary.
