# GitLab Package Registry

GitLab Packages allows organizations to utilize GitLab as a private repository
for a variety of common package managers. Users are able to build and publish
packages, which can be easily consumed as a dependency in downstream projects.

The Packages feature allows GitLab to act as a repository for the following:

| Software repository | Description | Available in GitLab version |
| ------------------- | ----------- | --------------------------- |
| [Container Registry](container_registry/index.md)   | The GitLab Container Registry enables every project in GitLab to have its own space to store [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) images. | 8.8+ |
| [Dependency Proxy](dependency_proxy/index.md) **(PREMIUM)** | The GitLab Dependency Proxy sets up a local proxy for frequently used upstream images/packages. | 11.11+ |
| [Maven Repository](maven_repository/index.md) **(PREMIUM)** | The GitLab Maven Repository enables every project in GitLab to have its own space to store [Maven](https://maven.apache.org/) packages. | 11.3+ |
| [NPM Registry](npm_registry/index.md) **(PREMIUM)**  | The GitLab NPM Registry enables every project in GitLab to have its own space to store [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/) packages. | 11.7+ |

TIP: **Tip:**
Don't you see your package management system supported yet? Consider contributing
to GitLab. This [development documentation](../../development/packages.md) will
guide you through the process.
