Just to update on this:

1. We have fixed the link for Go

2. We have added some rollover captions for the formats, and you can also see a full list here : https://help.cloudsmith.io/docs/supported-formats

3. we haven't yet approached Gradle, but it's absolutely something we will look at.

Thanks again. Very much taken on board.

Superb Feedback. Thanks very much for this.

There are how-to's / guides in a few places. For gradle, you have our general documentation like https://help.cloudsmith.io/docs/gradle-repository and then within your repositories you have contextual "set me up" docs, which come ready to cut and paste into your configs. A little hard to explain without showing you, which I'm happy to do at any stage if you want a call to chat.

Our free trials are fully featured, and our free plan includes public repositories of course also.

Again, thanks for the feedback. Super Helpful.

There are other offerings for a package distribution use case - https://cloudsmith.com being the most clear alternative. Support for 23+ package types, comprehensive API and CLI, package signing support, global PoP's etc.

Full Disclosure - I work at Cloudsmith, and I genuinely think it's awesome. If anyone has any questions feel free to reach out to me - dan at cloudsmith dot com

Just FYI - We've released the world's first private DART repository service.

Free to trial, and Free for Open-Source projects forever!

I would absolutely love any feedback at all (positive or negative!) and I'm happy to answer anyone's questions about this (or any of the other 18 package formats that we support!) Please do give it a try and let us know what we are missing / can improve / are doing well.

I don't think it's specific to just younger devs, but there absolutely is an argument for having your own artifact repository that you can control.
