While it's not a good port, it was still impressive on a technical level. Especially when you consider it was basically done from scratch in about 10 weeks

Does anybody know if Sailfish will ever be open-source, or at least have a fork with the proprietary bits replaced?
in reply to Carlos Solís
The core bits are open source, see Mer Project for details. One fully open project building on the same core is Nemo Mobile.
Only the UI, Android Integration and first party apps are proprietary, though the new Jolla owners are working on open sourcing their apps at least.
(There was some legal drama with their Russian investors, the original Finnish founders managed to get the rights to everything back after the investors stopped responding)

in reply to exu
The UI is probably the hardest part to replace. Android integration can be eventually done via Waydroid (or Valve's Lepton whenever it starts to be mature enough), and the first-party apps can go the way of the dodo for all I care (as long as the community has built replacements for them already)

Setting up your dev environment. Then maybe create a few projects for you to test your package manager empirically?
Depends on what you want to do. I'm honestly not sure how to help you here? What kind of answer are you fishing for here?

Aside from the fact there are so many package managers out there, don't you want to start with something simpler?

Once you've got an okay understanding of the language, I think a package manager would be a great project to learn with (especially if it's something you're interested in)!
... show moreWhether you build your own package format or use one from another manager is up to you. If you want to learn how a specific package manager works, consider integrating with their package format. If you want to design a full system, consider designing your own (and maybe take inspiration from some existing solutions). I wouldn't say that using an existing format would be strictly easier, as those formats are specially designed and can often be very complicated.

This is a tricky question for any application. I'd highly recommend spending a little bit of time to determine roughly what steps will need to be done for each stage of package management (i.e., creating a package, publishing a package, installing a package). Since you're just doing this to learn, it's okay if it's not perfect or if there are portions that are missed, it's just important to get some thoughts out. When you actually start writing code, you'll probably want to focus on the more fundamental aspects that block the other stages (implement package creation before implementing installation)
