Ask HN: Would a platform-indep devtool installer be useful? I'm building one

I had this idea where there is just one command to install something (e.g. docker) on any machine, be it Ubuntu or Fedora or Mac, for development purposes. More information in the readme:

Do you think it is going to be useful?

you mean like a package manager? what's wrong with apt, brew etc
also there already is a command to install docker on any machine
curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh
