I spun up a container running Nexus3 (community version) initially to use as a local repo for chocolatey. But management would like to utilize winget since it is built in to most recent versions of Windows. Can I use Nexus as a local repo and a proxy of nuget and/or chocolatey repos as a source for winget? and if so, what do I need to do to get it to work? Thanks!

Hi Travis, we don’t currently support it.
