OpenLens VS awsume

To support visual feedback for the users who are using tools like Openlens, we can add a +kubebuilder:printcolumn annotation to the MyApp struct. To do so, add the following code to the MyApp struct:

There is also OpenLens (https://github.com/MuhammedKalkan/OpenLens). And for anyone switching from Lens, pod shell and logs functionality can be found as an extension.

`openlens` is now preferred over `Lens`, it has everything you need and none of the fluff that Lens wants to charge you for.

It's actually called OpenLens: https://github.com/lensapp/lens#readme but I don't think the official repo offers binary builds of it. Someone does here though: https://github.com/MuhammedKalkan/OpenLens

It's already at OpenLens readme file: https://github.com/MuhammedKalkan/OpenLens

You can use Lens which also offers a free license. I would also take a look at OpenLens. You stated that you were looking for something GUI-centric, but I would also take a look at k9s to help you dig deep into your cluster, quickly.

For managing clusters via Windows, check out WSL2 + k9s and OpenLens

Yep Rancher or K3s is a good start. As is OpenLens.

I have used awsume a long time. Then I got a new Macbook and lost 1/2 hour installing different python versions. So I programmed switchaws in go to get a single executable. And, yes: I declare guilty of the "not invented here" syndrom :) .

Bonus comment: After setting up your aws credentials, have a look at awsume, which makes rapid switches between accounts and roles a lot easier.. :)

Has anyone on AWS gotten k9s to work with Awsume [0] authentication?

Learn how to WORK with AWS well, for instance set up Awsume (https://awsu.me/, install the Switch Roles extension (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/aws-extend-switch-roles/jpmkfafbacpgapdghgdpembnojdlgkdl). Try to make working with it as painless as possible. I went through a long phase of bitching and hating AWS but I've recently just given in.

Haven’t tried Leapp, not sure how I’d feel about needing to swap to a UI every time. I’m a huge fan of Awsume

💡 When working with different accounts and/or roles and enabled MFA, it's recommendable to get some tooling support. I love working with AWSume in this case. It's easy to set up and really intuitive to work with.

Together with awsume and cdkstat I can have a terminal dashboard if a want to monitor the deployment on multiple accounts:
