Overview

The default plugin is the core plugin for Codify, providing 50+ declarative resources for managing development tools and system configuration across macOS and Linux. It's automatically included with Codify and covers the most common development environment needs.

Overview

The default plugin brings Infrastructure-as-Code principles to your local development machine. Instead of manually installing packages, configuring tools, and setting up your environment, you describe your desired system state in a JSON configuration file and let Codify handle the implementation.
