Flux is a tool for keeping Kubernetes clusters in sync with sources of configuration (like Git repositories and OCI artifacts), and automating updates to configuration when there is new code to deploy.

Basically it gives you a way to deploy by pushing to a repo and keeps the cluster in sync with those configs. Rather then having a CICD system with admin credentials to the cluster to be able to push config.
