### **About Namespace**



Namespace is an application development platform that helps you manage your development, testing,

and production workflows, in a consistent and unified way.



You describe the servers in your application, how they're built, their relationship, and which

additional resources they need. And from that description -- built out of a set of composable and

extensible blocks -- Namespace orchestrates:



- **Build**: start with your Dockerfiles, or use one of our language-specific integrations, so you

  don't have to manage Dockerfiles manually. Apart from their ease of use, language-specific

  integrations set up your build and development environment with the latest best practices and make

  harder things simple (e.g., support multiple platforms).



- **Development environment**: With Namespace, you don't need to manage your development

  dependencies manually -- the days of asking folks in the team to install the right SDK versions

  will be gone. Instead, we'll manage SDKs and dependencies on your behalf. As a result, getting

  someone new onboarded into the application development environment will take minutes rather than

  hours or days.



- **Representative environments**: How often have you hit bugs in production or testing that are

  hard to reproduce locally? Namespace helps you bridge the gap between environments, managing

  production-like environments across development and testing.



- **Effortless end-to-end testing**: When you have an application setup with Namespace, writing an

  end-to-end system test becomes simple. From the same application definition used to set up a

  development environment, Namespace is also capable of creating ephemeral testing environments used

  to run end-to-end tests.



- **Kubernetes**: (but you don't need to care). We help you and your team to think about concepts

  you care about: services, resources, backends, etc. Under the covers, you'll find

  industry-standard Kubernetes and CNCF projects, which means that as you grow or need, you can

  easily tap into the broad Kubernetes ecosystem. No hidden implementation, and no vendor lock-in.



- **Packaged dependencies**: adding support infrastructure or a resource -- whether it's a storage

  bucket, a database, a messaging system, etc. -- it's as simple as adding a dependency to your

  application.



### **Getting Started**



To get started follow our [getting started guide](https://namespace.so/docs/getting-started/). After

installing `ns`, explore some of the [examples](https://namespacelabs.dev/examples) our team put

together.



### **Issues**



The Namespace Labs team uses Linear for issue management. Unfortunately, we haven’t yet found a way

to make it available to everyone. Meanwhile, please file issues in Github, and we’ll follow up on

them.
