Welcome to the Sylk Developer Docs!

Sylk is a free and open-source framework for developing microservices projects. It aims to simplify the process of creating distributed systems using the latest "Battle Tested" technologies.

One of the key features of Sylk is its CLI (Command-Line Interface), which provides a set of tools to help developers create, build, and run Sylk projects. The Sylk CLI allows developers to easily generate resources, implement easily server-side logic, and interact with their services using auto-generated client-side code ready to be published.

The Sylk CLI is designed to be intuitive and easy to use, even for developers who are new to microservices architecture. By simplifying the process of building distributed systems, Sylk and its CLI help developers focus on creating great applications without getting bogged down in the details of infrastructure and communication protocols.

Overall, Sylk and its CLI provide a powerful and flexible framework for developing modern, distributed applications. Whether you're building a simple Todo list or a complex, multi-service application, Sylk can help you get there faster and with less complexity.
