Gust - A task orchestration system built in Elixir

I get your point! Gust’s initial goal is to be an Airflow alternative, not a background job lib.

At its core, Gust is a DAG orchestrator; it really shines when you have complex workflow logic that processes unstructured data, where you need quick iteration.

Example: “You’re ingesting unstructured data from dozens of websites (HTML pages, PDFs, APIs with inconsistent schemas) and turning it into structured data.”

Overall, the Gust project is an umbrella app, with the UI and processing logic split; in theory, it is possible to use the Gust UI to monitor Oban jobs or create workflows with them.
