You'll like using SlackBuilds (www.slackbuilds.org).  There's a program called 
sbopkg that works with SlackBuilds but as per the Slackware credo, there's no 
dependency management.  There's a fix for that: there is a script called 
sbodeps (on Github) that uses sbopkg and will solve dependency issues on its 
own.

There's slapt-get and a few other package managers that other Slack-based 
distros use but I am not familiar with them.

Later,
Sean
