# APT

**APT (Advanced Package Tool)** refers to the package installer used in **Debian** or **Ubuntu-based** Linux distributions. On **Discloud**, you can add some of these packages to your application's container if needed.

***

## ❓️ How to use it? <a href="#como-utilizar" id="como-utilizar"></a>

Check the required package for your project and add it to the `APT` option in the [`discloud.config`](https://docs.discloud.com/en/configurations/discloud.config) file.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you need to use more than one package, separate them with **commas and spaces**, as shown in the example below.
