Introducing Flux VSCode Extension in Public Beta
Context Switching, and the VS Code GitOps Tools Extension (Prerelease)
Observability is all about measuring internal states through external signals. Flux emits many signals, but it’s not always clear how to ensure that relevant information about errors gets to the right people at the time that it is most critically needed – when it will save you time to fix what’s wrong. In this demo, we’ll see the new GitOps Tools Extension for VS Code and how it helps minimize context switching. What does the editor have to do with Flux’s Observability? Reducing context switching is a key driver for improving DORA metrics. The VSCode extension’s goal is to keep you in your editor, where you can be most productive.
GitOps & Flux Scaled to Hundreds of Developers
Is your SDLC written by/for the auditors?
Let’s review and demo a scalable GitOps model for your 200+ services development organization, using Flux with GitHub Actions workflows. We will explain the Config Repository pattern and how it satisfies some enterprise requirements. The demo is focused on an Image Updater bot that manages upgrades to base images so a platform support team can support many downstream developers in an automated way. All while ensuring their product remains compliant with security scans. The Image Updater Bot demo is written in TypeScript, to depend on GitOps Toolkit components.
