Earthly has been deprecated1 a few months ago and will see no further updates or support. While a community fork is trying to get off the ground, we are looking for alternatives that are more actively supported. One approach that we
want to try is combining Just as a task runner with Flox environments. The upside of this approach is that Flox offers a few more features for local development, while the downside is the lack of task isolation and caching.
