CFEngine Development team consists of highly motivated experts who work on two main areas: Core and Front-end. The Core Developers design and implement the CFEngine core, written in C, which consists of both the Community Edition and its commercial extensions, such as CFEngine Nova.

- CFEngine's commercial extensions are designed to bring real business value to its users, so that customers will be keen to pay for this value. This requires developers to understand the challenges faced by the wide range of companies we support ? some conservative, some modern ? and efficiency, creativity and innovation in every line of code we write.
