Purpose:
NuGet has become core to development especially with the newer versions of .Net frameworks (all building blocks are NuGet packages that contain assemblies PLUS additional metadata). Any decent developer that has configured and setup their own build pipeline would have had run ins with Nuget (for example package hell scenarios). Any ignorance in this technology may be a massive warning sign that a developer is very junior.
Potential Answers:
NuGet is the free/open-source package manager for the Microsoft development platform. It was formerly called NuPack.
The NuGet client tools provide the ability to produce and consume packages in your code of commonly used frameworks and tools. The NuGet Gallery is the central package repository used by all package authors and consumers and is always critical to the way that .Net framework class elements are packaged, distributed and versioned of late.
(If the developer talks about other Packaging solutions like Chocolately for machine level package management or NPM/Bower for web packages it shows maturity as a technologist)
