A platform above your provider
Flui sits on top of the cloud providers it integrates with and gives you a single API, CLI and dashboard. The experience above stays the same whichever supported cloud is underneath.
flui.cloud
The platform layer on top of your cloud provider. A modern, consistent experience for the infrastructure you own — across providers, portable by design. Open source, AGPL v3.
Capabilities providers don't ship
Managed clusters, observability, ingress, TLS, DNS, identity. The kind of integrated experience you get from a managed PaaS — on the infrastructure you already pay for.
A cloud provider is a module
Flui’s architecture treats every cloud integration as a pluggable module against a common interface. A handful of providers are wired in today; the same slot is open for any other provider that implements the interface.
Open spec, no lock-in
Applications are described by a portable flui.yaml manifest. Your apps don’t belong to a vendor — they belong to the spec, and the spec is yours.
Start here
The shortest path from zero to a running application.
What Flui is The 5-minute overview: what Flui is, what it isn't, and the model the rest of the docs builds on.
The first hour with the CLI Install, create the control cluster, log in, deploy an application. The concrete first-time path.
The flui.yaml manifest The open spec at the centre of the platform — the contract your applications speak.
CLI reference The full topic-by-topic command reference for day-to-day use.
Go deeper
Once the basics click, the concept chapters explain why the platform makes the choices it makes — useful when something behaves in a way you didn’t expect.
Catalog vs Application The two kinds of manifest, when each applies, and how custom catalog entries fit in.
Storage classes and dedicated placement When workloads need a real disk, when they don't, and what changes when an app opts into dedicated placement.
TLS and certificates The three issuance modes a cluster can run in and the three certificate shapes Flui picks between.
Observability as first-class Why metrics, logs, and crash reports are part of the platform, not an add-on you wire up.
These docs cover the platform concepts and the CLI. The dashboard is
designed to be self-explanatory and does not have a dedicated section
here yet — its source lives at
flui-cloud/flui.dashboard,
and if a dedicated section is needed, one will follow.
