paket

Paket is a term used in several languages to denote a parcel or package—a tangible item prepared for shipment and delivered by postal or courier services. It is also used to describe a bundle or set offered for sale, such as a travel package or a promotional bundle. In many languages, paket conveys the idea of a wrapped or grouped item that is ready for transport or sale.

In logistics and commerce, a package typically includes a label, sender and recipient details, tracking information, and appropriate packaging. Shipping networks and couriers manage the handling, transit, and delivery of parcels, including customs when crossing borders. The concept of a parcel parallels digital forms of packaging, where software and data are distributed as bundled units.

Paket is also the name of a software tool: a cross-platform dependency manager for the .NET platform. It helps manage library dependencies across projects and aims to produce reproducible builds. Paket uses a paket.dependencies file to declare external packages and sources, and a paket.lock file to pin exact versions. It resolves transitive dependencies, supports centralized versioning, and can pull packages from NuGet feeds as well as Git repositories. It is commonly used in conjunction with build scripts and other automation tools.

In Indonesian and Malay, the word paket is widely used for bundled offerings, such as travel packages (paket wisata) or discount bundles (paket hemat). The term also appears in other languages with a similar sense of a prepared set of goods or services, reflecting its core idea of packaging and bundling.

Overall, paket spans shipping, commerce, and software, united by the concept of a packaged, organized collection.
