octant VS helm-dashboard

I just can't understand why people don't give Octant (https://octant.dev/) a try.

Have you seen Octant https://octant.dev/? (It's a question not a recommendation).

Octant

Like the Kubernetes Dashboard, Octant is an open-source web interface for visualizing your clusters and applications. The solution supports multiple plugins via a core gRPC API, making Octant extensible and richly featured. Like other tools, it provides real-time updates on the health and performance of your cluster’s objects plus related objects. This detailed metrics tracking is meant to simplify the debugging process and highlight problems before they become threatening. Building off of kubectl and kustomize, Octant is a simple and reliable tool for managing the Kubernetes system as a whole.

Octant is one of the best-known tools in the Kubernetes dashboard space. It’s a project that Bryan Liles built a lot of back when he was at Heptio. I remember Bryan talking on Twitter about a new tool he was working on that would help folks think about what was running in their Kubernetes clusters, and that was Octant. VMWare acquired Heptio after that, and now Bryan and Octant are both at VMWare.

Let us wait for a few moments before the URL is reachable. Meanwhile, let us install Octant from here.

If you’re looking for a set of valuable tools that collectively work as a powerful dashboard, Octant may be ideal.

Helm Dashboard is an open-source project by Komodor that offers a visual and user-friendly way to manage and visualize all the Helm charts installed in your clusters. Instead of using the terminal, you can leverage the Helm Dashboard's intuitive UI to perform a variety of tasks that make working with Helm a breeze. Here are some of its key features:

https://github.com/komodorio/helm-dashboard seems interesting, but a bit overkill for the dev/PM usecases compared to the DevOps folks using it.

Helm dashboard (https://github.com/komodorio/helm-dashboard/) is my first big open-source project, and during the last couple of months, we at Komodor have consistently been working on improving it (We released a GA and got 3K stars in a couple of months), but we were scratching our heads with the future roadmap!

The tricky part of OSS is that it's hard to know what should be developed next; we tried a couple of methods to make this work:

As always, we welcome everyone to provide feedback and suggestions on the project’s roadmap on our social channels, GitHub, or the Slack Kommunity. We’ve even created a user survey form to make it easier on you 🙂

Regardless, if you're also using (suffering) from Helm, we have a cool open source GUI to help with that: https://github.com/komodorio/helm-dashboard
