Garden

Garden is a developer automation platform for Kubernetes that speeds up building, testing, and previewing applications by defining workflows once and running them consistently across development, CI, and preview environments. It uses a graph of build, deploy, and test actions with smart caching so only what changed is rebuilt, reducing slow feedback loops and the drift between local, CI, and production-like environments.

Garden is used by teams working on microservices in Kubernetes who are frustrated by slow, inconsistent inner-loop and CI pipelines. It creates on-demand preview environments, runs integration and end-to-end tests against real clusters, and shares caches across the team to cut wait times. For organizations aiming to make Kubernetes development fast and repeatable, Garden provides a unified workflow engine.
