I don’t know how to feel about Kubernetes configuration apparently being so complicated that you need a generator for it, instead of just having the docs and your IDE open in split screen like with Docker Compose.
That said, this still looks cool. I just hope we won’t need a Kubernetes configuration generator generator anytime soon.
Kubernetes manifests are no different from any code one would write. The first few times you need to accomplish something, you consult the docs. After a while, you know what you need. If you find yourself doing the same thing over and over again, automate it. I don't understand the hand-wringing over k8s YAML.
It's actually conceptually simpler than docker compose given what it does.
The bigger issue is that there's a lot of things you can do with it, and editing text YAML/JSON serialization of the objects is probably one of the least efficient ways of dealing with it, but it's also the "default" way people know.
It's much easier when your editor actually understands the object you're editing instead of at best helping you write correct YAML.
