#### Frolic playfully while your workflows run in the background!

A simple workflow engine for distributed applications 🎬 🌌

gambol enables you to write straightforward workflows that can
be run on no-frills cloud environments. Rather than require you
to be an expert in cloud infrastructure, gambol allows you focus
on what matters: **getting work done**. You can write end-to-end
tests for your distributed application, test packages in isolated
environments, create comphrensive testing suites that can run both
locally and in the cloud, and more. Say goodbye to spending half your
day just setting up your testing infrastructure with shell script soup!
