hof - the high code framework
hof tries to remove redundent and error prone development activities.
The idea is to write your data model once and generate most of your code.
You can then work directly in the output to customize,
update the design or generators, and then regenerate your application.
hof uses CUE extensively to power the DX and implementation.
- data model management so you can checkpoint, diff, and migrate
- code generation to skaffold code across the stack
- diff3 for custom code and skaffold regeneration
- modular and composable code generators with dependency management
There are also several utilities subcommands for adhoc file generation, data transformations, and CUE powered scripting.
Install
You will have to download hof the first time.
After that hof will prompt you to update and
install new releases as they become available.
You can find the latest version from the
releases page
or use hof to install a specific version of itself with hof update --version vX.Y.Z.
# Latest Release
go install github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/cmd/hof@latest
# Latest Commit
go install github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/cmd/hof@_dev
# Shell Completions (bash, zsh, fish, power-shell)
echo ". <(hof completion bash)" >> $HOME/.profile
