Zarf is a declarative package manager for offline and semi-connected Kubernetes environments. With Zarf, you can build and configure applications while connected to the internet; once created, you can package and ship to a disconnected environment for deployment. As a standalone tool, Zarf packs several useful features, including automatic Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) generation, built-in Docker registry, Gitea and K9s dashboards to manage clusters from the terminal. Air-gap software delivery for cloud-native applications has its challenges; Zarf addresses most of them.
