You can use cmake on windows. However, you'll probably need different build commands on windows and posix systems anyways.

Sounds great, but I don't think it's realistic to implement. If you know any truly cross-platform build system, where you can run a single universal command on any system and...

That's by far not what I would consider a universal build command. It just multiplexes completely different commands based on platform. And as I said in https://github.com/crystal-lang/shards/issues/507#issuecomment-871334603 this kind of...

Please let's focus on #458 first and revisit this once that is merged.

#458 has been merged, so we can move forward with this. Sorry for the slow review process 🙇‍♂️

I know, it's not an optimal result. If it was feasible, I would go for any improvement. But I think that's the best we can get for a reasonable effort....

I support the general idea, but I don't think a `private` property is a good approach. For example, for shardbox.org it doesn't make any sense. The shard won't be listed...

I know this is a different angle. But it seems to solve the *actual* use case @caspiano described: "indicating that the repository is private/not intended for use as a [dependency]"....

I'm not sure about this. `--production` affects dependency resolution, `--release` affects the compiler process. They don't necessarily have the same use cases. For example in testing and staging environments you...

Then #86 completely missed the point to illustrate it's about querying some remote index. I understand it as being primarily concerned with querying information about *installed* shards. This PR only...
