About:
Coursier is a command-line tool for fetching and managing Scala and Java dependencies from Maven and Ivy repositories. It resolves, downloads, and caches artifacts, enabling fast and reproducible builds without requiring a full build tool. Its main value is lightweight, standalone dependency management that can also launch applications directly.
Key Features:
  • Fast dependency resolution and artifact fetching
  • Standalone launcher for Scala/Java applications
  • Supports Maven and Ivy repositories
  • Native launchers for macOS, Linux, and Windows
Use Cases:
  • Installing and running Scala CLI tools without a build file
  • Resolving and caching dependencies for CI/CD pipelines
  • Bootstrapping development environments for Scala projects
Alternatives:
  • sbt – Full-featured Scala build tool; heavier and slower for simple tasks
  • Maven – Standard Java build tool; XML-based configuration, less optimized for Scala CLI use
