Abstract
A system and method for hosting and publishing software packages is disclosed. An example method includes receiving and storing artifacts related to a software development kit and metadata describing a version of the software development kit. The received artifacts and metadata may be converted into a package for the software development kit. The package may then be staged and the package's dependencies may be checked to ensure that the package's dependencies exist and that there are no conflicts with another staged package. The currently staged packages may then be tested to determine if there are any incompatibilities among the staged packages and access control information may be used to provide the currently staged packages in a common format to the appropriate users.
