Downloaad or submit patches via github: https://github.com/MidnightBSD/mports

The ports(7) manual page (man ports).
MidnightBSD website https://www.midnightbsd.org/
If you would like to search for a port, you can do so easily by saying (in /usr/mports):
make search name="<name>"
or:
make search key="<keyword>"
which will generate a list of all ports matching or . make search also supports wildcards, such as:
make search name="gtk*"
To use packages instead, use the mport command to install. You can find out what pacakges are available on the midnightbsd app store http://app.midnightbsd.org/
You can also learn about package builds and their progress https://www.midnightbsd.org/magus/
To create packages, one must use the magus software, which is included in Tools/magus Tools/lib and so on.
NOTE: This tree will GROW significantly in size during normal usage! The distribution tar files can and do accumulate in /usr/mports/Distfiles, and the individual mports will also use up lots of space in their work subdirectories unless you remember to "make clean" after you're done building a given port. /usr/mports/Distfiles can also be periodically cleaned without ill-effect.
If you wish to contribute to mports, submit via github on https://github.com/MidnightBSD/mports
Feel free to create a pull request to update any mports in this repository.
All contributions must be provided under the same BSD 2-clause license we use.
