Finding apps through the Windows Package Manager is really easy when you know where to look.
Windows Package Manager is a really powerful, easy-to-use software installation tool on Windows 10. It's still in preview right now but anyone can try it, and the most recent update adding an uninstall feature makes it something you can start building into your daily workflows.
The big difference with a package manager such as this is that there's no built-in browsable GUI to find the apps you're looking for. And obviously, as it's dependent on manifests being submitted, you might not be able to get everything you want.
