The Twinpack Package Manager is a powerful and user-friendly package management tool for TwinCAT libraries. It is designed to empower the TwinCAT community by enabling sharing and distribution of libraries. It acts as a versatile platform similarly to NuGet (but with a PLC touch), allowing users to efficiently manage and deploy their custom-built modules.
Twinpack is free. It is developed by Zeugwerk and is the standard way to install and update Zeugwerk Framework - but it works for any TwinCAT library from any publisher.
Twinpack currently supports the following package sources
- Twinpack server: Zeugwerk hosts open source libraries for and from everyone who is interested for free. Additionally this server type supports special features for Zeugwerk customers like feature branches.
- Nuget Server: Everyone can host his own NuGet server and create packages to consume them from the on premises server.
- Beckhoff Library Repository: Since TwinCAT 4026, Beckhoff provides a public repository for their libraries. Twinpack can connect this repositories and integrate them seamlessly into the IDE.
