“InstChoco is the evolution of an old batch file I used over the years to automate installing Chocolatey followed by a bunch of ”choco install program -y“ commands to install my standard set of packages. I eventually decided to make it a program and add many additional features as well as integrate with other Chocolatey packages I've created.

Chocolatey related ONLY: Give me a 100 term vocabulary list sorted by popularity in usage (by commonly used / frequency of use in codebases). That means 100 terms, not 100 words. DO NOT REPEAT YOURSELF. Acronyms related to Chocolatey technology are allowed but they must be expanded. e.g. RAII (Resource Acquisition Is Initialization). The terms should have to do ONLY with and SPECIFICALLY with Chocolatey, CANNOT include generic operating system terms, generic IT terms, or computing terms. No definitions. Just the words. Each word should be surrounded by double brackets and separated by a comma and on the same lines. e.g. robots, robotics. Etc.
