extrakto VS k9s

For me personally tmux giver minor improvements (some of them are done by some terminals, some are not), e.g.:

* Text selection using variuos shortcuts (usually I use it only for URL):

* FZF autocompletion from output, e.g. in case I want to diff some file I see changed in `git status`:

For me, tmux is the terminal/workspace manager, nvim is the editor. If I want to work on a different repo/workspace, I open a new tmux window and open a new nvim in that window. If I need to do stuff on the terminal, opening a new tmux pane feels more natural than opening a new nvim split with a terminal. Also this tmux plugin is great: https://github.com/laktak/extrakto

extrakto - let's you do a fuzzy search across all the words/lines/extracted objects/etc in your pane or window and put it in current command

A tmux plugin that I use all the time is extrakto: https://github.com/laktak/extrakto

My favorite is extracto that helps to extract text segments on display so that you don't have to use mouse

I'm using extrakto[0] for it, so far it works nice.

Only glanced at it but didn't see it mention 'V' which selects rows rather than characters. Which can be quite useful.

There are also tmux plugins to make some operations smoother.

Like keyboard driven browsers uses hints, so file paths, git SHAs etc. are highlighted using a small hint and if you press it it is copied.

Fuzzy search in current pane to insert/copy things of interest.

Pierre: The first tool I recommend is K9s. It's not just a time-saver but a productivity booster. With its intuitive interface, you can speed up all the usual kubectl commands, access logs, edit resources and configurations, and more. It's like having a personal assistant for your cluster management tasks.

The last thing you really need is a common set of tools that you want fingertip access to. I really commonly use LazyGit and K9s in my day job so those are the tools I will show off in this article.

K9s is your best friend (get it? 🐶) when exploring your cluster via the terminal. It shares commonality with Vim for its interaction style using shortcuts and starting commands with: but don’t let that discourage you. K9s keeps a vigilant eye on Kubernetes activities, providing real-time information and intuitive commands for resource interaction.

k9s: brew install k9s

I would like to put in a vote for k9s, which is also on the list at Terminal Trove. [0] It's the most convenient tool I've ever found for Kubernetes management. Based on that experience I'll definitely be checking out Harlequin.

All in all, run things, do some kubectl apply -f something.yml every day, install k9s, and try to configure a big one cluster at some point.

(K9s is one of my favorite tools for navigating Kubernetes clusters through the CLI).

K9s is an open-source, terminal-based UI for interacting with your Kubernetes clusters, making navigating, observing, and managing your apps easier. If you use Kubectl but wish it was easier and faster to use, K9s might be just what you're looking for!
