Tool Ecosystem

Each tool addresses a specific aspect of the development workflow:

CI/CD Tooling: Automated continuous integration and delivery pipelines. Provides GitHub Actions, reusable workflows, and pre-commit hooks for Python projects.

FlavorPack: Secure executable packaging using PSPF/2025 specification. Bundles Python applications with all dependencies into single-file executables with signature verification.

Plating: Documentation and code generation templates. Creates boilerplate code, documentation scaffolding, and project structures from templates.

SupSrc: Automated Git workflow and commit management. Handles commit creation, branch management, and repository operations with smart automation.

WrkNv: Work environment management and toolchain automation. Manages Python environments, project workspaces, and development tool installation.

Workflow Integration

These tools are designed to work together throughout the development process:

  1. Setup (WrkNv): Initialize project environment and install dependencies
  2. Generate (Plating): Create boilerplate code and documentation structure
  3. Develop: Implement features using the frameworks
  4. Commit (SupSrc): Automate Git operations and commit management
  5. Package (FlavorPack): Build and sign distributable executables
