Packagist
Packagist is the default Composer package repository. It lets clients find packages and lets Composer know where to get the code from. Composer can be used to manage your project or libraries' dependencies.
Cloudsmith
Cloudsmith is the modern artifact management and software supply chain security platform. It gives engineering teams a unified control layer for every package, container, binary, and ML model moving through their software supply chain – across 30+ formats, with built-in policy enforcement and continuous security monitoring. Modern engineering teams assemble software more than they author it and AI agents pull in open source dependencies at a pace that exceeds ad hoc governance.
