🌱 Garden

[TODO LOGO + DEMO IMAGE]

Garden is a specification for modeling an ecosystem (e.g. of products, services) as a directed acyclic graph with unlimited recursion and composability. This repository holds a CLI for generating the JSON schema in cli, and visualizer web app in app, powered by Next.js.

For a reference implementation, check out the Omniverse (coming soon).

In the future, a <Garden /> React component will be created as well as the ability to compose and nest gardens as "subgardens" within a "supergarden".

Garden layouting is currently powered by ELK, more layouting engines will be supported in the future.

Why "Garden"?

Cultivation. A garden is a place where plants are grown and cultivated, and digital ecosystems thrive on this same approach.

Features

• A visual representation of an ecosystem of projects and their relationships
• Composable: each garden is independently processable as its own garden, and gardens can be nested inside of each other ("supergardens" and "subgardens").

Generate the Schema

cd cli, then cargo run -- $OUTPUT_FILE. For example, cargo run -- ../garden.schema.json.

Local Development (Web App)

The app is a landing page and visualizer for Garden schemas. cd app, then continue below.

Generate Types from Schema

bun generate

Building and Running

bun install

bun run dev

Inspiration

Garden is inspired by the CNCF Landscape project, which is a collection of projects that are part of the CNCF. The CNCF Landscape is a visual representation of the projects and their relationships, making it easier to understand the relationships between projects and the larger ecosystem.
