manifesty

Manifesty is a term that can refer to different concepts depending on linguistic and disciplinary context. In some Slavic languages, notably Polish, "manifesty" is the plural of "manifest" and commonly denotes manifestos or declarations — public statements that set out principles, intentions, or demands. In English-language usage it may appear as a variant or transliteration in specific contexts.

In transportation and logistics, a manifest (and by extension manifests/manifesty) denotes a document listing cargo, passengers, or goods carried on a ship, aircraft, truck, or train. Manifests are used for inventory, customs clearance, regulatory compliance, and tracking, and typically contain descriptive details such as quantities, origins, destinations, and consignors.

In computing, a manifest file is metadata associated with software packages, applications, or containers. Such files describe components, dependencies, versioning, permissions, and resource mappings needed for installation, execution, or deployment. Manifests help package managers, operating systems, and runtime environments manage and validate software.

As a cultural term, manifesty/manifestos historically function as tools for political movements, artistic groups, and social campaigns to articulate goals and rally supporters. They range from brief proclamations to extended treatises and often aim to influence public opinion or policy.

Etymologically, "manifest" derives from Latin manifestus, meaning "clear" or "evident." Usage and specific meaning depend on context, and the form "manifesty" should be interpreted according to the language or domain in which it appears.
