Summary

  • Adds a Flox environment providing reproducible developer tooling: helm, kubectl, helmfile, task, just, make, yq, jq, yamllint, python3, replicated, curl, git
  • Supports aarch64/x86_64 on both macOS and Linux
  • Replicated CLI is auto-installed via Homebrew on first activation if not already present
  • Updates README with a "Getting Started" section for flox activate

Why

Quality of life improvement for contributors. Rather than tracking down and installing CLI tools individually, flox activate gets you a ready-to-go environment with everything you need.

How to test

  1. Install Flox if you don't have it
  2. Clone the branch and run flox activate from the repo root
  3. Verify tools are available: helm version, kubectl version --client, task --version, yq --version, etc.
