About Flux
Flux ships 2.8 GA with Helm v4 support and a new Terraform bootstrap path that ends years of resource-ownership pain.
Flux is on a steady major-release cadence — 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8 within roughly twelve months — and just published a new Terraform/OpenTofu bootstrap module that solves the long-standing handoff problem between Terraform-managed and Flux-managed resources. The 2.8 release brought Helm v4 with server-side apply and enhanced health checking. Earlier in the year, MCP Server for AI-assisted GitOps and time-based deployments via Flux Operator added meaningful surface area beyond core sync.
