kubebox VS jqp

To anyone visiting here, I got a lot of feedback for new tools (which I haven't tried yet), both on Youtube and here, so I compiled it into a list: A comment on Lens: Initially I wanted to include Lens in the video but decided it's a bit different in that it's not a CLI / TUI. Many users shared bad experience with Lens, mainly around performance and a large amount of requests it shoots at the cluster API to a point where some companies banned it. These are the tools (I may add a video review on if anyone thinks it's worth it): * https://github.com/kubermatic/fubectl - for an improved kubectl experience * https://github.com/particledecay/kconf - for those with complex kubeconfig changes requirements * https://github.com/MuhammedKalkan/OpenLens - an open version of Lens (note the above before using) * https://github.com/hidetatz/kubecolor - colored kubectl output :) * https://github.com/astefanutti/kubebox - the K9s little brother? * https://github.com/bergerx/kubectl-status - human friendly resource status output

If that later becomes problematic, maybe I'll switch to https://github.com/astefanutti/kubebox

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
