🌟 What is Kestra?

Kestra is an open-source, event-driven orchestration platform that makes both scheduled and event-driven workflows easy. By bringing Infrastructure as Code best practices to data, process, and microservice orchestration, you can build reliable workflows directly from the UI in just a few lines of YAML.

Key Features:

🧑‍💻 The YAML definition gets automatically adjusted any time you make changes to a workflow from the UI or via an API call. Therefore, the orchestration logic is always managed declaratively in code, even if you modify your workflows in other ways (UI, CI/CD, Terraform, API calls).
