Appliance and stack definitions
The repo holds the real operational shape of the environment, not just a presentation layer for it.
For builders and operators
Hearth is not just a dashboard codebase. The repository contains stack definitions, install and rebuild scripts, portal and admin source code, Codex and Vault logic, deployment workflows, docs, architecture references, and the assets needed to operate the platform.
The repo holds the real operational shape of the environment, not just a presentation layer for it.
Codex, memberships, Vault, Nexus, admin surfaces, and protected access workflows live here because they are Hearth-native concerns.
The repository explains not just how to code against Hearth, but how to assemble, verify, and operate the whole appliance.
Extensibility without incoherence
Hearth supports custom apps, custom stacks, and expanding services, but those additions are meant to plug into a recognizable platform pattern instead of turning the appliance into chaos.
Deployment workflows
The platform direction already shows up in its deployment tooling. Source applications become managed surfaces, and Compose stacks become first-class installations instead of sidecar exceptions.
