About Kamal

Kamal

Its documentation covers installation, configuration, commands, hooks and an upgrade guide, and the current version listed is 2.12.0, with 1.9.2 still documented. The vision section and an explanation of why it exists compare it with running Capistrano, Kubernetes or Docker Swarm instead.
