Chocolately is perfect if you need a robust, well-supported (by the community) package manager. It has basically every major library/tool that you need to do development. I used it specifically in UI test automation.

On OSX machines we use brew which works if compared to Chocolatey, a lot better. You could see that on Windows machines the idea of a command line-based software installation tool is not very common, especially if you want to use tools like Python or other scripting languages.
