This project is described as “a new component in the Flux CD ecosystem that automates the lifecycle management of Flux components and streamlines GitOps workflows for Kubernetes clusters.” Technically, it works as a Kubernetes operator (CRD controller), which can be used (instead of
flux bootstrap) to deploy Flux and manage it in your cluster. This approach strives to simplify the installation, configuration, and operation (e.g., upgrading, scaling, and improved observability) of Flux. The operator's code is written in Go and licensed under AGPL 3.0.Find more information in this announcement and GitHub repo.
