saltenv is a Salt binary installation and management tool, inspired by tfenv
saltenv allows users to easily install multiple salt binaries built with tiamat. This is useful for standalone machine (desktop/laptop) configuration where the full Salt installation isn't warranted or necessary.
saltenv is built as a POP application, which allows it to leverage other POP plugins in the ecosystem or plug into other applications as necessary.
This project is built with pop, a Python-based implementation of Plugin Oriented Programming (POP). POP seeks to bring together concepts and wisdom from the history of computing in new ways to solve modern computing problems.
