Flux version 2
Flux is a tool for keeping Kubernetes clusters in sync with sources of
configuration (like Git repositories), and automating updates to
configuration when there is new code to deploy.
Flux version 2 ("v2") is built from the ground up to use Kubernetes'
API extension system, and to integrate with Prometheus and other core
components of the Kubernetes ecosystem. In version 2, Flux supports
multi-tenancy and support for syncing an arbitrary number of Git
repositories, among other long-requested features.
Flux v2 is constructed with the GitOps Toolkit, a
set of composable APIs and specialized tools for building Continuous
Delivery on top of Kubernetes.

Get started
To get started with Flux, start browsing the
documentation or get started with one of
the following guides:
If you should need help, please refer to our Support page.
The GitOps Toolkit is the set of APIs and controllers that make up the
runtime for Flux v2. The APIs comprise Kubernetes custom resources,
which can be created and updated by a cluster user, or by other
automation tooling.
You can use the toolkit to extend Flux, or to build your own systems
for continuous delivery -- see the developer
guides.
