JFrog Platform Basics

JFrog is a binary dependency manager. It stores, indexes, and deploys components according to your usage patterns and the capabilities of each repository format.

JFrog Concepts

Below are key terms you’ll encounter when working with JFrog:

Project

A JFrog Artifactory project is a logical grouping of repositories. Most repositories—except some public remote repositories—exist within a project, organized by application or Ford organizational unit.

Repository

A repository is a container for binaries and artifacts consumed or produced by Ford developers, suppliers, or partners. Access to Artifactory repositories is best managed through tokens, which can be used by CI/CD pipelines or individual developers.
