Reposilite vs Strongbox

Both stand on artifact repository software. Which one you can start free with, which one lets you read the code, and what each costs once you pay.

Reposilite

Free plan APILinuxSelf-hosted+1

Reposilite provides repository management, proxying and extensibility without a paid plan. Its self-hosted deployment and Java 17 requirement make infrastructure planning part of adoption.
