kube-score VS krew

This is taken from: https://github.com/zegl/kube-score/blob/master/README_PROBES.md and I have read the same opinions elsewhere.

A developer's workflow should anyway deploy to a real, or close-to-production Kubernetes cluster before opening a merge request with the finished change. That means the developer definitely sees upfront if the manifest is super wrong. Tools like kube-score (which is quite opinionated), kubeval or OPA rules can help in addition to keep things consistent and secure. For such a developer workflow, I recommend Skaffold since it mostly just wraps Docker, kubectl and the templating tool you're using (e.g. kustomize/helm).

[CRITICAL] Pod Probes · Container is missing a readinessProbe A readinessProbe should be used to indicate when the service is ready to receive traffic. Without it, the Pod is risking to receive traffic before it has booted. It's also used during rollouts, and can prevent downtime if a new version of the application is failing.

Authenticating with Kyma is a (in my opinion) unnecessary challenge as it leverages the OIDC-login plugin for kubectl. You find a description of the setup here. This works fine when on a Mac but can give you some headaches on a Windows and on Linux machine especially when combined with restrictive setups in corporate environments. For Windows I can only recommend installing krew via chocolatey and then install the OIDC plugin via kubectl krew install oidc-login. At least for me that was the only way to get this working on Windows.

Krew is a way to manage plugins for Kubernetes. For more info, check out the following link: https://krew.sigs.k8s.io/

I plan on getting it added as a krew plugin, so watch this space.

Krew is a plugin manager maintained by the Kubernetes Special Interest Group (SIG) CLI community. Krew makes it easy to use kubectl plugins and helps you discover, install, and manage them on your machine. It is similar to tools like apt, dnf, or brew. Today, over 200 kubectl plugins are available on Krew - and that number is only increasing. Some projects are actively used and some get deprecated over time, but are still accessible via Krew.

kubectl plugins can be installed in numerous ways, the easiest way would be to install the official plugin manager called krew.
