Acorn: A lightweight PaaS for Kubernertes, from Rancher founders
Here at Suse we looked at https://github.com/theketchio/ketch and the founder for Acorn did some diligence there. Is it a copy?
-
Helm is both "package manager" and "templating engine" - probably the best package manager but horrible template engine
An idea may be to look at something like Ketch, and potentially combine it with Pulumi, TF, or others. Here is an example
-
A simple application deployment framework for Kubernetes!!
You have some more “established” tools, such as Ketch but from what I’ve seen, many people are building it in house by using tools such as Helm, Crossplane, or others
-
Application deployment framework.
Pretty much what Ketch has been doing for a while already, and Ketch is part of a larger app platform
-
Acorn - the new cool kid for app deployment to Kubernetes
Pretty much what Ketch has been doing for a while now
-
Automatic generation of Manifest files.
Another option you have is to use open source projects like Ketch that can make this process more "developer friendly". Here is an example
-
Deploying Python apps on Kubernetes without complexities
Because of that, we have created an open-source project called Ketch to make life easier when deploying apps on K8s.
-
Nodejs App From Code To Kubernetes Cluster
The team is excited about enabling developers to focus on their application code instead of infrastructure. We would love it if you could show your support by starring the project on GitHub and sharing this article with your teammates.
-
Stronger abstraction for deployments
It might be worth having a look at the open source project Ketch
-
Deploying applications on Kubernetes using TypeScript
Instead, by combining the application-focused approach from Ketch with the IaC model from Pulumi, developers can have an application-focused layer they can leverage to quickly deploy their applications without getting into the underlying infrastructure details exposed by Kubernetes.

K8s Service Meshes: The Bill Comes Due
Any, it doesn’t matter which as long as you don’t have to count spaces in yaml by hand.
If you really want a concrete recommendation try https://cdk8s.io/.

10 Ways for Kubernetes Declarative Configuration Management
CDK8s - CDK8s is used to define Kubernetes resources and applications. CDK8s uses the high-level abstraction concept called constructs to represent various Kubernetes resources such as deployments, services, and configurations. Developers can write code in programming languages like TypeScript, Python, and Java, and CDK8s will translate this code into standard Kubernetes YAML manifests that can be directly applied to a Kubernetes cluster.

I built a React renderer for Kubernetes configurations
Have you looked into https://cdk8s.io/? I've been using it for a while now, and I must admit TypeSript does help a lot. Not really sold on your React syntax yet, but well done nevertheless
-
How are most EKS clusters deployed?
I, personally, prefer to wrap it in CDKTF/CDK8S in golang and manage with Crossplane Composition Functions, but your mileage may vary. I'm finding way too bugs in CDK's... but it calms me a bit, that Amazon folks actually looking into it.
-
Editing Badly formatted yaml file
Have you looked into cdk8s? That will let you get away from dealing with yaml and let you use code instead. Helm included.
-
kpt, cue, ... Your experiences?
My favorite is cdk8s + typescript.
- Cloud Development Kit for Kubernetes
-
Dump Kustomize with 20 lines of TypeScript
