Relic Package Manager is a build tool that builds public and private ILE packages on your IBM i system. This allows developers to make their tools open-source and let Relic build them on other peoples systems. Relic is a community run project and hopefully ideas for Relic come out of the IBM i community. Relic makes use of current technologies such as DB2 services to access the internet.
In short it allows you to download the source of a package and execute the build script to end up with a final product. This in turn allows developers to host open source projects on GitHub or BitBucket for easy distribution.
As of 0.1, you are able to use the build tool without the package manager. You only have to use the package manager to download content off the web.
