CF Dev

start


CF Dev is a distribution of Cloud Foundry designed to run on a developer’s laptop or workstation using native hypervisors and a fully functional BOSH Director. CF Dev gives application developers the full Cloud Foundry experience in a lightweight, easy to install package. CF Dev is intended for application developers who wish to develop and debug their application locally on a full-featured Cloud Foundry. CF Dev is also an excellent getting started environment for developers interested in learning and exploring Cloud Foundry.

Features

Telemetry

Here on the CF Dev team, we use telemetry to help us understand how our tool is being used. We value our users privacy, therefore all telemetry is completely anonymous. There is no way for anyone with the telemetry to identify who is using the CF Dev tool. In an effort to make our data as transparent as possible, we will be publishing aggregated anonymous usage data to this page periodically to help our user community understand how the tool is being used.

In addition to making this data completely anonymous, we require users to opt-in to allowing us to collect telemetry from their tool. Upon running $ cf dev start for the first time, we will prompt the user to opt-in to capturing analytics. Any time after that you can turn on/off telemetry by running $ cf dev telemetry --on/off.

You can learn more about what we do with telemetry here
