It's simplicity. If you've never used it, all you need to understand it is one command. From there, all other commands make sense:


A statically compiled version of the binary is available to bootstrap alpine, and it's really all you need.
It is simple, has sane default and does whatever you'd expect from a pack manager, without getting in your way. No need to learn it, read the docs or whatever.
