I'm a Debian user, but RedHat has had Yum (Apt-equivalent) for probably a decade now.

Way more than a decade. I remember running yum on fedora core more than 15 years ago.

These days it's all pacman for me though.

In terms of front-ends, there's always packagekit. The following will work on both rpm and dpkg derivatives:

sudo pkcon install <package>
