Make sure your package name in the json is all lower case! Took ages to realise I had that wrong. Package wouldn't show up in the editor until I fixed it. The details are in the naming your package part of the Unity manual.

This is good practice that you are showing the documentation when talking about the link below (Y)

I didn’t know you could create custom packages

[Tvtig]

Oh wow, that easy? Will definitely release my code and tools as free packages in future.

Been using UPM for a while now, it's been great. I've re-structured almost all my code and previous prototype projects to now use UPM packages.
But I'm having trouble with GIT urls and WSL1 installation, so I ended up using local packages instead (package is in a folder outside the project folder and then added from disk). Only downside with using local packages is that it doesn't install the dependencies when adding the package. It's very annoying.

A future tutorial on scoped package registries perhaps?

Can someone please explain what 3:39 "Visibility in Editor" is? What does "Editor" refer to? The package manager? the packages folder in the projects panel? if the menuitems will be visible? It can't be any of those, because my package is visible in all of those

How do you handle the version field of dependencies that are git URLs?

[rathodketan]

Get an error

An error occurred while resolving packages:
Folder contains invalid packages:
Manifest is invalid:
Package name 'com.MyCustomPackage.Manager' is invalid.

A re-import of the project may be required to fix the issue or a manual modification of file

How do I create a list of packages like a template for what I want all my projects to start with, unity packages and asset store packages?

[MegaMiley]

Is there any way to have multiple versions through Github with the package manager?

[ThomasChen-urgt]

i'm getting :
Script '...' will not be compiled because it exists outside the Assets folder and does not to belong to any assembly definition file.
