apt — Highlevel apt package

The highlevel apt package provides a lot of functionality, all with an easy-to-use interface.

Warning

The API of this package is not considered stable. Evenmore, it is considered to change the naming conventions in future to lowercase_with_underscores.

In case this happens, the API will still be kept compatible, with the old functions provided as deprecated ones.
