Getting Started with Habitat
summary
Explains Habitat as three working systems: a package format and builder that performs dependent builds and publishes artifacts to a Depot, a networked supervisor that gossips state in a service ring and coordinates rolling updates and leader election, and a hosted Builder that auto-rebuilds dependents so a CVE fix propagates without manual relink. Shows scaffolding for Rails/Ruby to build and run an app in under 80 minutes, demos successful studio, supervisor and config gossip.
