The CUE Configuration Language

Configure, Unify, Execute

CUE is an open source configuration language which aims to make complex configurations more manageable and usable.

CUE is a constrained-based language. Constraints provide a powerful yet simple alternative to inheritance, a common source of complexity with other languages. The CUE tooling also provides powerful integrated scripting aimed at improving the overall experience of putting configurations to good use.

Some highlights:

  • JSON superset: get started quickly
  • convert existing YAML and JSON
  • arbitrary-precision arithmetic
  • reformatter
  • automatically simplify configurations
  • powerful scripting
  • rich APIs designed for automated tooling
  • a formalism conducive to automated reasoning
  • generate CUE templates from source code

Download and Install
