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.

Local development set up for microservices with Kubernetes - Skaffold
There are dedicated tools just for that. Apart from skaffold check also tilt.dev, garden.io, devspace.sh, okteto.com
-
Noob question: How do you setup your local dev environment?
Check also devspace.sh and okteto.com
-
Is it ok not to be able to run application locally?
You can consider using okteto for development environments, it lets you deploy your local code directly to k8s replacing the existing pods, our team uses it and it works pretty well with Golang.

Deploy Elasticsearch 8.5 on Kubernetes with Okteto Cloud free plan
Okteto is an application that allows you to develop inside a container, along with many features it permit the user to start a development environment and provide an automatic SSL Endpoints for k8s.

Approaches in Cloud Development Ergonomics
With Infrastructure as Code at its current state of maturity, it’s now easier than ever to replicate microservice environments in the cloud. This unlocked a new approach of having a personal production-like cloud environment for every developer, which they can use freely and in isolation. It comes in two flavors - persistent environments, or ephemeral environments created on demand with products like Okteto or Bunnyshell (also sometimes called Environment as a Service)1. This approach overcomes the resource limitations of the local environment but substitutes them for some new difficulties:
-
Devbox: Instant, easy, and predictable shells and containers
Remote development will be popular? Yes.
But developing in a monolithic machine may be not. The development environment should be clean and isolated, and products like gitpod and coder is promising.
Besides this, maybe you can have a look at https://github.com/tensorchord/envd and https://github.com/okteto/okteto

Okteto: Need for developer tooling
Okteto accelerates the development workflow of Kubernetes applications. You write your code locally and okteto detects the changes and instantly updates your Kubernetes applications.

Okteto for local development in Kubernetes
Hey! Recently, I’ve been playing around with [Okteto](https://www.okteto.com/) to see how it helps with the local development of apps that will run in Kubernetes. It seems to be quite a good option for developers who don’t want to spend their time dealing with setting up and maintaining clusters. Moreover, you can use a development environment from Okteto without thinking about CI/CD pipelines for delivering the app.So, instead of working on your code locally and deploying it then to the cluster, the whole development process is shifted straight to K8s. That makes Okteto approach a bit different from what other projects, like Skaffold and werf, do. To implement this idea, they offer a [CLI tool](https://github.com/okteto/okteto) and their own cloud provided as both SaaS and self-hosted (it has a limited free option).Here is [my overview](https://blog.flant.com/okteto-cloud-for-local-development-in-kubernetes/) of Okteto; any feedback — especially, your own experience — is more than welcome.

The Future of the Gitlab Web IDE
There's a long long route to cloudification, but works like Okteto[1] seem like a nice early pass at doing what Docker-Compose was capable of for fast local development, but modern. Pursuing remote-development makes a lot of sense. There's already solid VSCode integration[2].
If you just need a terminal like thing to local-dev in, toolbx[3] is probably the first choice.

Mutagen – Cloud-based development using your local tools
Hi Jacob. I am one of the founders of Okteto (https://okteto.com/), a remote development platform for Compose and Kubernetes applications. We use Syncthing to sync code between the developer laptop and pods running in Kubernetes. I would love to know your thoughts on the strengths and weak points of Mutagen vs Syncthing for this use case.

You get what you Measure: Understanding your applications health with Grafana, Loki and Prometheus
If you want hands-on practice you should have a running Kubernetes cluster (I used MicroK8s for this tutorial) and Helm (see how to install on Installing Helm tutorial). It is important that you understand the basics of these tools to fully understand.

Running workloads at the edge with MicroK8s
MicroK8s is a lightweight, batteries included Kubernetes distribution by Canonical designed for running edge workloads which also happens to be developer-friendly and a great choice for building your own homelab. The following lab covers how to install and run MicroK8s on your own edge node running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, deploy the NGINX web service and exposing your NGINX website to the Internet with SSL/TLS enabled using AWS resources included within the Free Tier.

I had the same problem (and there's a github issue about this: https://github.com/canonical/microk8s/issues/2186). I swapped to k3s and the usage was half of what microk8s used.

Cuber: Deploy your apps on Kubernetes easily
microk8s currently has a showstopping issue that makes it guaranteed to have an irrecoverable failure in HA mode. see https://github.com/canonical/microk8s/issues/3227
k0s is better but also has a lot of bugs. it's the closest to vanilla kubernetes among all the distributions.
> like the simplest GPU support
linux users should be ready to install the nvidia device plugin. if they can't do that, they're never going to succeed in running a gpu accelerated application on their cluster anyway.
> like bootstrapping
in my experience, writing all the bootstrap scripts is painful. but now that there's chatgpt, so much of the drudgery as gone away.

Picked up this HP EliteDesk 800 G2 SFF for 60 EUR! Runs OpenBSD like a charm.
They now power my microk8s/x86 cluster (in addition to my 8-node Raspberry Pi4 ARM64 microk8s cluster), microceph cluster and my LXD cluster, and all are configured with WOL, so I can bring up the cluster from any machine in the homelab, on demand.
