dagu-org/dagu
A local-first workflow engine built the way it should be: declarative, file-based, self-contained, air-gapped ready. One binary that scales from laptop to distributed cluster.
This tool helps you automate and manage complex sequences of tasks, like data pipelines or infrastructure operations. You provide a simple file outlining your steps and their dependencies, and it runs them in order, handling scheduling, retries, and errors. It's designed for operations engineers, data engineers, and anyone needing robust, self-contained automation for their recurring processes.
3,174 stars. Actively maintained with 191 commits in the last 30 days.
Use this if you need a lightweight, self-contained system to orchestrate data processing jobs, automate IT tasks, or manage scheduled operations without external databases or message brokers.
Not ideal if your primary need is for a general-purpose job scheduler without complex inter-task dependencies or a visual workflow builder.
