Introduction

{oss} and {pro} are widely used in a large variety of organizations for numerous different use cases.

Integrating the repository manager and expanding its features is encouraged and enabled by the availability of {oss} under the Eclipse Public License, the REST API and the support for plugins as part of the repository manager itself, including writing your own plugins.

A number of tools are available to facilitate the community of users.
