Mint is Now RWX

When we first started RWX, we built and shipped several dev tools to solve a variety of problems related to builds and tests.

Over the past year, we've made the biggest impact for engineering teams with Mint, our CI/CD platform.

Given this focus, we've decided to deprecate the Mint name, and rebrand the CI/CD functionality directly as RWX.

Nothing is changing with ABQ and Captain. We'll continue to develop and support both products. We plan to create a more seamless UX for engineering teams using Captain on RWX, but we'll continue supporting it from other CI/CD platforms as well.

Backwards Compatibility

We've provided backwards compatibility for all of the Mint → RWX renames.

See the full migration guide in the docs:

https://www.rwx.com/docs/mint/mint-to-rwx-migration

Automatically Renaming Packages

As you'll see in the docs, we've renamed "leaves" to "packages." Previously, some leaves were owned by mint/, such as mint/install-node. We decided to move all of the language runtime packages to be owned by the respective language. For example, mint/install-node is now nodejs/install.

We're always willing to spend significant effort to make changes as easy as possible for engineering teams using RWX, so we implemented a feature in the rwx CLI to automatically handle the renames.

Just run rwx packages update.
