Welcome to the Strongbox artifact repository manager's home.

Strongbox is a modern OSS artifact repository manager. With a well-developed architecture, it provides native implementations for various layout formats, such as Maven, NPM, NuGet, and Raw.

All of the implemented layout formats (a.k.a. "layout providers") are written natively in Java. Our goal is to implement a universal repository manager that can host and serve artifacts in every mainstream format.

Strongbox has a search engine and an Artifact Query Language.

• Working on migrating from OrientDB to JanusGraph (#1649).
• Adding support for JDK11 (#1111, #1775). We only support JDK8 in the master. The work for this is based off the issues/1649 branch.
• Thorough Maven dependency and plugin upgrade (against the master).

You can find our documentation here.
