New to GitOps or been a long-time Flux user?

We'll walk you through the benefits of GitOps and then demo it in action with a sneak peak into the next gen Flux and GitOps Toolkit!

• Automation!
• Observability!
• Reconciliation!
• Powerful use of Prometheus and Grafana!
• GitOps for Helm!

For Flux users, Flux v1 is decoupled into Flux v2 and GitOps Toolkit. We'll demo how this decoupling gives you more control over how you can do GitOps and with fewer steps!

Join Leigh Capili and Tamao Nakahara as they show you GitOps in action with Flux and GitOps Toolkit.

Note to our Flux community that Flux v2 and the GitOps Toolkit is in development and Flux v1 is in maintenance mode. These talks and upcoming guides will give you the most up-to-date info and steps to migrate once we reach feature parity and start the migration process. We are dedicated to the smoothest experience possible for our Flux community, so please join us if you'd like early access and to give us feedback for the migration process.

We are really excited by the improvements and want to take this opportunity to show you what the GitOps Toolkit is all about, walk you through the guides and get your feedback!
