OpenLens VS dashboard

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.

Setting up and interacting with your first cluster can be overwhelming. Just like me, you might have come across the infamous kubernetes/dashboard, followed the installation instructions, and asked yourself: "What did I just do and why exactly does this work the way it works?" And after some tinkering with your cluster, you might have installed even more external tools that help you with some specific aspects of cluster management, providing you with either a CLI or a Web UI.

Loki needs Promtail

Kibana needs Elasticsearch

I'm not sure if this has good enough log viewing https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard

Created service account (followed this link: https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/wiki/Creating-sample-user)

The Kubernetes Dashboard could work for this use case.

yaml GITHUB_URL=https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/releases VERSION_KUBE_DASHBOARD=$(curl -w '%{url_effective}' -I -L -s -S ${GITHUB_URL}/latest -o /dev/null | sed -e 's|.*/||') sudo k3s kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/${VERSION_KUBE_DASHBOARD}/aio/deploy/recommended.yaml

paste the token created. Have fun! source1 source2

At the end of the guide, two web applications will be deployed: the sample ASP.NET Core app from Microsoft and Kubernetes dashboard. Both served on custom local domains with trusted TLS.

Here's an option developed by the Kubernetes folks, https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard . There are several more options out there if you search for alternatives to this.

Kubernetes Dashboard GitHub tells:

sorry I misspoke this is the pattern I was thinking of - https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/blob/master/modules/web/Dockerfile
