Chocolatey slack5/19/2023 ![]() ![]() Organizational use of the community repository is not recommended. You likely would not want to give control of your infrastructure over to community members and volunteers. If your use of Chocolatey is for an organization/business, you likely have a low tolerance for production breakages and/or low trust for the greater internet. This is something you can get with internally hosted packages, and you are unlikely to achieve from use of the Community Package Repository. Organizations SummaryĪs an organization, you want 100% reliability (or at least that potential), and you may want full trust and control as well. This creates a large failure point that organizations just don't have when they are hosting their own internal packages. However there is a limiting factor with a public repository - distribution rights. You can gain trust over some packages on the community repository, and possibly some reliability if the binaries are included in the package. When it comes to using Chocolatey in an organizational context, you want reliability, control, and trust. Packages Disclaimerīottom line - As an individual using Chocolatey, you are more likely okay if something breaks when setting up your personal machines - the Community Package Repository is typically fine for you.
