What is Apt?
Apt is a set of core tools inside Debian. Apt makes it possible to:
- Install applications
- Remove applications
- Keep your applications up to date
- And much more...
Apt works with dpkg, another tool, which handles the actual installation and removal of packages (applications). Apt is very powerful, and is primarily used on the ["command line"] (["console"]/["terminal"]). There are, however, many ["GUI"]/Graphical tools to let you use Apt without having to touch the command line.

Reader Comment
Aptitude is the default package manager of the new Installer and so must be covered here. Command line apt-get is now a secondary tool for specialized tasks and so should not be covered in a introduction to Debian. -- aam 10/19/05
I don't find my package
If you don't find a package, you can look for it in http://www.apt-get.org, where you can find the line you have to add to your SourcesList to have a repository with the desired package.
