Our review
What we like
Vendor executables without checking large binaries into source control. Makes it easy to standardize & pin specific dependency versions e.g. Node or an internal-only runtime build. Downloads and verifies the binaries. Can be generated using the included GitHub Actions workflow.
What we don't like
It’s not a package manager and is designed for a single binary. The main limitation of this is the lack of support for installing dependent packages.
