Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Giving Kyma a little spin ... a SpinKube
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.

Windows auth with K8s on prem
It is sort of a roundabout way, but I sync Active Directory to a Keycloak realm, then use OIDC auth with kube-oidc-proxy (https://github.com/jetstack/kube-oidc-proxy) and kubelogin (https://github.com/int128/kubelogin) for OIDC-based auth to the api server.

Kubernetes in production.
Yes, I setup a cluster with no SPFs. That means an HA setup for the external load balancer. I use HAProxy for my ELB, and setup 2 instances with a VRRP + keepalived to provide HA to the ingress controller. I run the control plane private, accessible only from localhost. I setup kube-oidc-proxy (https://github.com/jetstack/kube-oidc-proxy) to expose the API server with single sign-on on the ingress controller, and use the kubelogin plugin (https://github.com/int128/kubelogin) to provide OIDC support to kubectl. I then setup Keycloak to handle OIDC/OAuth2/SAML and syncing to Active Directory, and setup groups in Active Directory to control acccess to clusters. Devs each get their own namespace in the dev cluster, with mostly cluster-admin access to their namespace. Staging/Prod clusters are locked down, with read-only access to devs. Thanks to the OIDC auth to the APIServer, when employees are onboarded & offboarded, we only need to add/remove them from groups in Active Directory and everything else just magically syncs.

Gitlab token exchange with keycloak to execute deployments with kubectl
I've successfully configured kube-apiserver to authenticate users through oidc (https://github.com/int128/kubelogin) so all the users from my keycloak realm can access to the cluster with their credentials.

Why are there so many OIDC SSO options for Kubernetes?

RBAC MANAGEMENT
I use the kube-login plugin for kubectl (https://github.com/int128/kubelogin) along with the kube-oidc-proxy (https://github.com/jetstack/kube-oidc-proxy), using Keycloak as my OIDC provider (https://www.keycloak.org) and doing LDAP synchronization to Active Directory.

Manage user authentication in on-prem cluster
Dex oauth and kubelogin. We happen to use google auth in our org, but dex is pretty flexible. You only have to have a way to distribute server certificates. We then have documented script commands to pull certs and create kubectl fig files. OpenUnison always looked interesting, but dex has been good enough for our uses.

Jenkins Agents On Kubernetes
default is where any actions which require a namespace will go into if one is not explicitly defined in a default setup (tools such as kubens can alter this behavior). In the context of Jenkins, namespaces are a useful way to allow isolation of individual Jenkins instances that want to utilize the same Kubernetes cluster. Creation of a namespace is a simple option to kubectl:

[ANN] Kele: Snappy Kubernetes cluster management in Emacs
For a peek at what's currently possible, visit the documentation site, in particular the Usage section. For this initial release, it has feature parity with kubectx and kubens and that's about it, but there's lots of room for growth.
