Hi, I came across a repo called wit-deps. It's a tool used by some wasi repos for interface dependency management.
Warg docs say:

Warg is primarily designed for publishing and fetching WebAssembly binary packages, both core modules as well as components and component interfaces.

So I wonder why don't they use warg. Is it due to warg incompleteness or there are other reasons? Is it already addressed somehow?

Warg is only recently stabilizing enough for integration.

Thx, makes sense. But perhaps wit-deps should add some note that it's not a long-term solution

See https://crates.io/crates/wit for a tool that can manage wit dependencies via a warg registry
