Lima Installer - Install Packages From Safari

Here's another reason to jailbreak your iDevice. A new project started up last year with a guy by the name of ipwnm0snter at the helm. It's called Lima and it aims at being an alternative to Cydia. Sure, there are many of these but Lima puts a spin on things.

Lima works from within Safari. After installing the plugin, you drop by the Lima website and you'll be able to browse through the available repos and install the goodies that you would normally do via Cydia. Lima is able to recognize all of the dependencies that any installs may need and will pull them as well.

At the moment, Lima is in a very limited beta phase. You can elect to sign up here. As time goes on, the developers are looking to improve security of their plugin and add a few new features and improvements such as backups and package recommendations. Take a look at it in action.

You can read up more on Lima at the official site below.
