In their own words

Haxelib

Haxelib is the library manager included with Haxe distributions. It connects to a central repository for finding, installing, and sharing Haxe libraries on Windows, macOS, and Linux, with API access. The command line installs the latest release or a specified version, resolves dependencies from HXML files, and supports offline installation. Search matches project names or descriptions, while the info command displays ownership, licensing, descriptions, websites, tags, versions, and release notes. Developers can submit ZIP archives or directories, use Git or Mercurial repositories, and create local repositories from project files. Installed libraries can be exposed to the Haxe compiler with --library or -L. Haxelib can use an HTTP proxy or a custom server. Libraries are distributed as source by default. The public HaxeFoundation repository is MIT licensed, and community links include GitHub, bug reports, Stack Overflow, forums, Discord, and Gitter. All libraries are free.

Tauri Bundler

Tauri Bundler is free Rust tooling for packaging applications as operating-system bundles and installers. Its build command bundles an application for its configured formats by default, with separate build and bundle steps available when customization is needed. Distribution documentation covers Linux, macOS, Windows, Android, and iOS. Linux options include Debian, Snap, AppImage, Flatpak, RPM, and AUR; macOS apps can go through the App Store or be distributed as DMG installers. The guides also cover the Microsoft Store, Google Play, and the iOS App Store. Build instructions show commands for npm, yarn, pnpm, Deno, Bun, and Cargo, and Tauri documents a GitHub pipeline for building and releasing applications. Tauri describes the tooling as frontend-agnostic and says most frameworks work out of the box. However, it acts as a static web host and does not natively support server-based frontend alternatives such as SSR. Code signing is required on most platforms; macOS distribution outside the App Store also requires notarization. Tauri says major and minor releases undergo security audits. The bundler's public API is intended primarily for tauri-cli and does not strictly follow SemVer.
