description Garden Overview
Garden is a development and testing platform for containerized applications and cloud-native services. It is designed to help developers build, test, and run projects across environments such as Kubernetes and local container runtimes while keeping workflows repeatable. Its focus is the automation of development tasks, test execution, and environment management. The platform is intended for software teams using DevOps practices rather than for general desktop application development.
help Garden FAQ
What is Garden used for?
Garden is a development and testing platform for containerized and cloud-native applications. It helps teams build, test, and run services in repeatable environments.
Can Garden work with Kubernetes?
Yes. Garden is designed to work with Kubernetes as well as local container runtimes. It can coordinate build and test workflows across services instead of treating each container as an isolated manual task.
Is Garden the same as Docker Compose?
No. Docker Compose mainly defines and runs related containers, while Garden adds a broader development and testing workflow around builds, services, tests, and environments. Garden can use container tools as part of that workflow.
Why would a team use Garden for microservices?
Garden can help a team repeat multi-service builds and tests without manually starting every dependency. That is useful when an application includes several containers or Kubernetes services that must work together.
