CharlesCD is an open source project that deploys quickly, continuously, and securely. It allows development teams to simultaneously perform hypothesis validations with specific groups of users.
It is possible to segment your customers through specific characteristics (circles) and, at the same time, submit several versions of the same application for testing with users of the circles.
Currently, CharlesCD works with these modules:
The project's concept refers to the theory proposed by biologist Charles Darwin (1809-1882), that evolution occurs through adaptation to a new environment. In the development's case, this logic happens through constant improvements in applications, for example, when you build and test hypotheses to deploy more effective releases.
CharlesCD offers a solution to the community: we want to enhance the deployment and hypotheses testing work, because it will allow you to identify problems faster and execute possible solutions to solve them.
For this reason, we consider CharlesCD a Darwinism's application within the development and programming universe.
To install Charles your environment needs the following requisites:
