Make the development experience on Kubernetes great

Problem to solve

Kubernetes is good for operations, but not great for development. It's complex to set up and operate and doesn't flow with a typical development experience. Compare the experience to deploying to Heroku, and the difference is clear. Let's make the Kubernetes experience better for Developers.

Intended users

  • Delaney (Development Team Lead)
  • Sasha (Software Developer)

Further details

You could argue that Kubernetes was never designed for Developers, yet many Developers find themselves needing to interact directly with Kubernetes. How can we improve that experience? There are already several tools such as Garden.io, tilt.dev, https://adaptjs.org/, https://okteto.com/, that make it easier for developers to work with Kubernetes. What can we learn from these and which can we leverage directly? What else can we improve here?

Proposal

Permissions and Security

Documentation

Availability & Testing

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

What is the type of buyer?
