Advanced Packaging Tool, or APT, is a front-end for the package management system used by Debian GNU/Linux and its derivatives (quoted from wikipedia). This tool should be very familiar for ubuntu/debian users as we need it to install application by using the command below:
$ sudo apt-get install package
When we run the command, debian will look for the package from the repositories. And the sources of the repositories can be found on /etc/apt/sources.list. We can edit this file to the closest server from our workstation or any server that we prefer.
