In the current model every plugin you'd have in your repo would have to be aware of your plugin manager, right?
I suspect you'd need adoption before authors would want to maintain a Pluginfile.json, and before there's a decent selection in your repo there's not a selling point to gain adoption.
A tool that can help me find things like git-series[0] would be cool, but I think you'd need to work downstream rather than having every git plugin know about your package manager. If you're gonna make repos to wrap upstream projects into your package format (which is what Linux distros do), then that could work.

- joshburnsxyz 5y agoCorrect, as this is the software equivalent of a rough first draft, This is the kind of feedback im looking for. The choice to enforce a format for plugins was done purely to streamline the fetching of metadata (names, authors, links, etc.). If you have any more ideas on what I can do to improve the project, and If you wanted to contribute some of your own ideas, please by all means, open an issue on github.
