Flox is a software development platform that lets developers, platform engineers, and operators focus on building fast with reproducible environments that span the enterprise software development life cycle. Modern developers build software on top of a dynamic set of tools, frameworks and packages, allowing them to move quickly and only build what’s necessary. However, each new wave of dev tooling innovation results in an entirely new set of dependencies that need to be managed. What starts as a simple app or microservice quickly grows complex, and developers find themselves dealing with the realities of a constantly expanding and diverse supply chain.

Flox brings reproducibility and consistency to complex software development lifecycles. Using a strong declarative framework based on Nix, a package management and system configuration tool, Flox allows developers to create reproducible environments that contain everything they need to build software. These environments each offer a complete software bill of materials (SBOM) that makes it easy to perform audits, address vulnerabilities, and recreate the exact conditions needed to address hard-to-pin-down bugs.
