🧠 How It Works

jellybeam coordinates its core functionality through a modular Kotlin pipeline. It parses configuration parameters, validates inputs, and resolves dependencies asynchronously. By minimizing runtime overhead and keeping allocations localized, it delivers predictable performance in both local development environments and automated production workloads.

🎯 Production Use Cases

Command-Line Automation

Execute automated build, deployment, and maintenance tasks directly from the terminal.

CI/CD Workflow Integration

Run non-interactive validation checks in GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or local pre-commit hooks.

Developer Environment Setup

Standardize local engineering workstations with single-binary utility commands.

Scripting & Pipeline Orchestration

Chain complex multi-stage scripts with reliable error reporting and exits.

🚀 Getting Started

1

Install jellybeam using your package manager: `git clone https://github.com/packetinspector/jellybeam.git`

2

Initialize your project workspace or configuration file for jellybeam.

3

Import jellybeam into your codebase or invoke it directly from your terminal.

4

Execute your test suite or run `jellybeam --help` to verify successful setup.
