Entropic is a federated package registry server with its own CLI, designed to be self-hosted inside your network and to interoperate with other registries. It uses a file-centric API and content-addressable storage, and can mirror packages from other instances and the legacy npm registry.

Use cases

• self-host a private npm-like package registry inside my company network
• mirror javascript packages so installs don't depend on external registries
• publish packages with namespaces and multiple maintainers
• run an alternative package registry to npm
• install legacy npm packages through a local registry instance

When to choose

• you want a self-hosted, federated package registry for JavaScript packages
• you need packages mirrored locally so builds don't depend on external registries
• you want namespaced packages with per-user namespaces and maintainer lists

When to avoid

• you need a production-grade, stable registry with broad tooling support
• you rely on npm ecosystem tooling and semantics
• you want a low-maintenance solution - the project is experimental and largely inactive
