Why does Conan recommend using Artifactory and not Nexus
post by thomas.jordan on Mar 17
Hi,
I have set up Conan proxy repository on Sonatype Nexus which was easy to set up when I followed the Nexus online documentation. It seems to work ok (I used it to access Conan public repo from a network without internet access). At some point I will probably want to create a locally hosted Conan repository too. However I notice in the Conan online documentation they recommend using JFrog Artifactory for locally hosted Conan repositories. Why do they promote Artifactory over Nexus?

We offer comprehensive support for Conan format, including Proxy, Hosted, and Group repositories. Project sponsors can usually highlight their solutions on the project site.

That makes sense, thanks.
