I made oroboros for working with large collections of app and server configuration that need to be shared across many systems.
Previously I had been using an automation tool to template my configuration variables and found myself frustrated that I couldn't access their processed values outside of the tool.
Oroboros exposes all configuration as JSON over HTTP by recursively templating & assembling configuration files under some directory. This makes it simple to track & release changes through version control.
This project solves a particular need of mine, hopefully someone else find will find useful it as well.
