Relying on packages 0.X.Y can lead to problems in production, as it breaks semver. However, it's nice to offer support for 0.X.Y versions, as it's the easiest way to share some packages for experimentation purposes.
To continue let people share experimental packages while ensuring every users to find correct, well-maintained packages, hiding every packages < 1.0.0 under an "experimental" page on packages.gleam.run. As such, users installing packages < 1.0.0 know what they're doing and that they have 0 stability guarantee.

Hmm, you're probably right, I can move the issue. Thanks for this, I've been a bit fast when opening it yesterday (I wanted to do it before I forget).

I think this could be a good idea, but we need to figure out the UI for these. We would want people to be able to find v0 packages, though not most prominently.
