Infisical is an open-source collection of services for simple secret management built on top of Typescript, Javascript (ongoing conversion to TS), and Go. It's all dockerized and can be spun up with Docker Compose.

|
## NGINX
|
|
|
|
NGINX is a reverse-proxy and load balancer that sits in front of Infisical. It forwards requests to the frontend and backend services.
|
|
|
|
## Frontend
|
|
|
|
The frontend service renders the Web UI using Next.js.
|
|
|
|
## Backend
|
|
|
|
The backend service provides the back-of-house logic for secret management.
|
|
|
|
## Database
|
|
|
|
The (MongoDB) database stores all data and (encrypted) secrets.
|
|
|
|
## CLI
|
|
|
|
The platform-agnostic CLI allows you to inject environment variables from Infisical into apps and infrastructure.
