Azure Artifacts overview

TFS 2018

Azure Artifacts enables developers to efficiently manage all their dependencies from one place. With Azure Artifacts, developers can publish packages to their feeds and share them within their team, across organizations, and even publicly across the internet. Azure Artifacts also allows developers to consume packages from different feeds and public registries such as NuGet.org or npmjs.com. Azure Artifacts supports the following package types: NuGet, npm, Python, Maven, Cargo, and Universal Packages.
