OpenLens VS jqp

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.

You may be familiar with some utilities that provide this interactivity, like jqp, but these come with their own downsides, namely subtle bugs due to the re-implementation of the original JQ in language X, but also they are additional dependencies you have to track and install for your platform architecture and OS/distribution.

Jqp: https://github.com/noahgorstein/jqp (for more complex jq stuff)

Also check out jqp (jq REPL) for when you need a few tries to get the right jq selector: https://github.com/noahgorstein/jqp

Looks a bit like fzf combined with jq.

jqp the Text User Interface for playing about with jq might help a bit.

You can have your input JSON terminal left, the output post jq terminal right and interactively edit your jq script elements above.

( based upon the Go implementation of jq )

I also showed using a TUI wapper around `jq` called `jqp` https://github.com/noahgorstein/jqp which can be nice when iterating on a `jq` filter
