# Repository Manager

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** Repository Manager is in active development, and things can change substantially!
{% endhint %}

## Overview

Repository Manager repositories are structured in a very simple way. The repository root contains a "repository.json" file describing the repository, a "categories.json" file defining the available categories, and a "contents" directory containing manifests for its contents. That's all.

Repository Manager repositories are not designed to be server-less, but managed by a server we call "Repository Manager", which takes the role of serving the official API, obtaining and preparing application files for distribution, and providing support for the Homebrew Browser.
