CFEngine 3 is a powerful configuration management tool that's speed, small footprint, multi-platform support, network resilience and agent-based approach attract many.

However, many have a hard time with the language and tooling, and need an easier way. CFEngine has been described as flour, eggs, milk and butter: all the ingredients needed to make a cake, but no recipe. ncf is that missing recipe - and much more.

ncf is a framework that runs in pure CFEngine language, to help structure your CFEngine policy and provide reusable, single purpose components distributed under the GPLv3 license.
