# Purpose

Imagine, a scenario where -> you want to watch [**an online video on YouTube**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbBr5b3-wSQ)! (What a great goal for spending a few minutes in solace) But, instead of using a pre-assembled device (Phone / Laptop etc.), You are given a few electronic chips and a soldering Iron to prepare your own computer and then install the required OS. Then after that, install the browser -> then you can Try to access, YouTube - but you forgot that you didn't install Wi-Fi/Ethernet Drivers to connect to the web. Now, my question to you is:

## Will you do all that, just to achieve a simple objective?

It is not that, all of that is impossible to do. Theoretically, you can do all of that and in the end, get the fruit of watching YouTube videos. But it doesn't sound so doable for everyone.

So, I hope now you are clear, that to develop any platform/area in life - you need some prerequisites/existing knowledge & tools. And, B**atCenter is a package manager for Batch/Script developers**, who can use it to quickly start their projects, without much hassle of finding the perfect tool for their needs.

For example, Python has its own package manager (pip) - so, you guys can simply download and install required tools/libraries to kick-start your projects. Similarly, npm ... and many more. So, why should Batch not have its package manager??
