flyctl

brew install flyctl v0.4.59 Apache-2.0

Command-line client for Fly.io platform deployment and management.

Why you might care

Flyctl manages the full lifecycle of apps deployed to Fly.io—authentication, deployments, secrets, volumes, and monitoring—all from the shell. Use this if you're hosting on Fly.io or evaluating it as a single-binary alternative to managing deployments via web console. It pairs naturally with local development workflows and CI/CD pipelines.
