What are Projects?
A project in Ona serves as a blueprint for development environments, connecting a specific repository with predefined configurations. This ensures all team members work with the same standardized setup, eliminating “works on my machine” problems. Projects provide several key benefits:- One-click environment creation with consistent configuration
- Standardization of development environments across your organization
- Automatic secret and environment variable management
- Time savings by eliminating manual environment setup
- Team collaboration through shared project configurations
Prerequisites
