In theory, you can use pkg-register(8) to create a package out of any arbitrary set of files. However, no one seems to be doing that on any great scale -- which probably means that the process is too complicated, or that the documentation is severely lacking, or maybe that it's just too awkward compared to using ports/pkgs, and that the ports apparently covers just about everything that you'ld need to do? I could be wrong though -- the only example I know of creating ad-hoc packages outside the ports, is by Dag-Erling: https://blog.des.no/2013/08/creating-pkgng-packages-without-ports/ https://blog.des.no/2013/08/pkgng-without-ports-addenda/ (Those are a few years old now, so the details may need to be updated, but the concept is still valid.)
