About Paclets

Paclets are the standard Mathematica package distribution format. They’re the source code for a package compressed with a PacletInfo.m file that provides meta-information about the package.

Paclets installed via PacletInstall can automatically be loaded via Get without passing the source name and provide all of the conveniences of a Mathematica application.
