Chocolatey Simple Server (aka Chocolatey Server aka rver) is an implementation of a NuGet.Server compiled and ready to go. The Chocolatey.Server package contains the binaries for a fully ready to go Chocolatey NuGet Server where you can serve packages over HTTP using a NuGet-compatible v2 OData Atom Feed. If you don't find it robust enough, our recommendation is to look to something more robust like Artifactory, Nexus, or ProGet (two of which are also free to use). However if you have a very simple use case or are conducting a POC, Chocolatey.Server may be good enough for your needs.
