From the README
Crossplane is a framework for building cloud native control planes without needing to write code. It has a highly extensible backend that enables you to build a control plane that can orchestrate applications and infrastructure no matter where they run, and a highly configurable frontend that puts you in control of the schema of the declarative API it offers.
Crossplane is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation project.
Crossplane's Get Started Docs covers install and resource quickstarts.
Currently maintained releases, as well as the next few upcoming releases are listed below. For more information take a look at the Crossplane [release cycle documentation].
