Govern Your Gosu Language Dependencies
Build, scale, and protect applications written in Gosu with comprehensive visibility into your open source packages and transitive dependencies. Sonatype empowers teams to effectively secure, manage, and govern Gosu language dependencies throughout the entire SDLC.
Gain Control Over Your Gosu Language Supply Chain
Gosu is a programming language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), designed for seamless interoperability with Java. Gosu applications compile to Java bytecode and run on the JVM, so they use dependencies from Maven Central and other Java-compatible repositories. This means Gosu builds inherit the power and risk of the broader open source ecosystem. Sonatype helps teams using Gosu manage, secure, and govern dependencies across the entire SDLC. By providing deep visibility into JVM artifacts, transitive dependencies, and package health, teams can confidently ship Gosu applications without introducing unmanaged risk.
Supported Features
Dependency Analysis
Analyze Gosu dependencies (direct and transitive) compiled to JVM bytecode.
Policy Enforcement
Define and automate governance policies to control which open source packages can be introduced into Gosu projects.
Vulnerability Detection
Identify security vulnerabilities in open source packages used within Gosu builds before they reach production.
License Compliance
Detect and manage open source license obligations across all Gosu language dependencies.
Repository Management
Proxy, cache, and control access to public and private repositories used in Gosu builds.
SBOM Management
Generate and maintain SBOMs for Gosu applications to support transparency and regulatory requirements.
Strengthen Gosu Builds Across Your Supply Chain
Because the Gosu language operates within the JVM ecosystem, development teams typically use Java-compatible build tools and dependency management systems. This allows Gosu projects to integrate naturally into modern CI/CD pipelines and enterprise DevOps workflows.
-
Improve Dependency Hygiene

View GuideFrequently Asked Questions
What is Gosu programming language?
Gosu is a statically typed programming language built for the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). It was designed to combine the structure and performance of Java with more concise, developer-friendly features such as type inference, enhancements, and simplified syntax. Because Gosu compiles to standard Java bytecode, it runs anywhere the JVM runs and interoperates seamlessly with existing Java libraries and frameworks. By running on the JVM, Gosu benefits from the performance, portability, and mature ecosystem of Java while offering a streamlined developer experience tailored to large-scale application development.
Does Gosu use Maven repositories?
Yes. Because Gosu runs on the JVM, it typically consumes dependencies from Maven-compatible repositories, similar to Java projects.
Can Gosu builds be analyzed like Java builds?
In most cases, yes. Since Gosu compiles to Java bytecode and leverages the JVM ecosystem, its dependencies can be analyzed and governed in the same way as other JVM-based applications.
Why is dependency management important for Gosu applications?
Like all modern software, Gosu applications rely on open source packages. Without proper visibility and governance, these dependencies can lead to security, licensing, and operational risks.
