I would like to share with you my pet project inspired by ArgoCD but meant for podman: orches. With ArgoCD, I very much liked that I could just commit a file into a repository, and my cluster would get a new service. However, I didn’t like managing a Kubernetes cluster. I fell in love with podman unit files (quadlets), and wished that there was a git-ops tool for them. I wasn’t happy with those that I found, so I decided to create one myself. Today, I feel fairly comfortable sharing it with the world.

If this sounded interesting for you, I encourage you to take a look at https://github.com/orches-team/example . It contains several popular services (jellyfin, forgejo, homarr, and more), and by just running 3 commands, you can start using orches, and deploy them to your machine.
