All-in-One Build System

Iglu combines a builder, cache, and a UI-based controller into a single, cohesive system - no external orchestration required.

Dynamic, Containerized Builders

Build jobs are automatically executed in isolated Docker containers. The controller dynamically creates and tears down these containers per job - ensuring clean, efficient, and reproducible builds.

Cachix Compatible & Flexible

Iglu is compatible with the Cachix client, allowing seamless integration with existing caching workflows - wi-thout vendor lock-in.

UI for Job and Cache Management

The built-in user interface allows teams to monitor build jobs, inspect caches, and manage build processes with clarity and ease.

Automatic Caching of Nix Derivations

Completed builds are automatically pushed to the cache, with proper hash-based detection. Redundant builds are avoided - ensuring fast and deterministic pipelines.

CI/CD Ready & Self-Hostable

Iglu is designed for automated pipelines and can be fully self-hosted-ideal for privacy-focused or security-sensitive environments.
