Do you think something like my simple http based system would work?

Fetch dependencies. Try to compile. If the linker complains about
missing files, download them from http://somewebsite/somepath/filename,
try again from the beginning.

There's no metadata, no version tracking, nothing like that, but
I don't think such things are necessary. Worst case, just download
the specific version you need for your project manually.
