Apple operates systems at great scale. To help teams across Apple manage their infrastructure and services, we develop Pkl, an open-sourced programming language to express, validate and transform configuration as code. To make our language easy and enjoyable to use, we also develop an ecosystem of tools and libraries around the language. We are a small, self-directed team that works in open source.
