Build
Provision a complete workstation from nothing (Homebrew, runtimes, dotfiles, editors, services) with one idempotent command. Then scaffold production-ready projects for 17 stacks.
DevForgeKit Terminal
ReadyWhat is DevForgeKit?
DevForgeKit treats your development environment like production infrastructure: declared, versioned, diagnosed, repaired, and portable.
Provision a complete workstation from nothing (Homebrew, runtimes, dotfiles, editors, services) with one idempotent command. Then scaffold production-ready projects for 17 stacks.
Profiles, recipes, and workspaces make every environment reproducible. Git identity, SSH, secrets, Docker context, and cloud CLIs switch as one unit per project.
Stay healthy while you ship: compatibility scans, deep diagnostics, dependency-aware repair with rollback, benchmarks graded A+ to F, and portable environment snapshots.
Cross-platform
Switch platforms and the commands adapt. Seven package managers are detected at runtime.

13 scanners diagnose and heal broken tooling with automatic rollback.
Snapshot your environment as a portable archive and restore it anywhere.
Documentation
58 deep-dive documents cover every subsystem, command, and architectural decision.
Roadmap
30+ releases shipped; here's what's live and what's next.
devforgekit.dev, the site you are reading, with full documentation, guides, and tutorials.
npm install -g devforgekit currently fails with EBADPLATFORM on stock Windows (cmd.exe/PowerShell) because the devforgekit entry point and postinstall script are both bash - not a packaging bug, an architecture limitation. Windows users should install from inside WSL today, where DevForgeKit runs exactly like Linux. v3.1 replaces the bash entry point and postinstall script with cross-platform equivalents and adds a real Windows-native provisioning path for devforgekit install, then removes the current os restriction once verified on real hardware.
pnpm and Bun global-install support, plus an official Docker image.
The registryUrl and mirrors configuration fields become live: fetch registry updates without pulling the repository.
Publishing today stages signed archives to a local or shared directory; a hosted marketplace is the designed next step.
The updateSchedule configuration field gains a real scheduler for automatic background updates.
Provision a complete development environment in one command, then keep it healthy forever.
