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.

Accelerate your local development environment with Tilt
The first is the load function which loads Tilt extensions. It's a way to expand the tool's features, and several are available. Here we are using docker_build_with_restart, which will update the container running inside our Kubernetes cluster.

Skaffold vs Tilt vs DevSpace
This is the central viewport into manual resource control and environment enhancement through the open-source extensions for Tilt.

Rancher Desktop, a Docker Desktop Replacement
Recently, I found Tilt [0] to be a good partner of mine to run "all services locally". It can be compared to "webpack (live-reloading, a lot of configuration possibilities) for backend". You want to run a bunch of services directly? Use local_resource()/local(). You have Procfile? There is procfile() function. You have docker-compose.yml with databases? You can run it too with docker_compose(). You want have Tiltfile and include them all-together? There is load(). You need some web-ui for frontend devs and a nice log browser? It is there too. You need to do some extra steps before running a service? You want to update your local cluster with newly built image on file save? No problem, tilt will do that with k8s_yaml() function. Tilt uses Titlfiles for configuration, which are written Pythonish Starlark language and you use them to run any specific logic there.
Also, I am not very lucky in having resemble 1:1 k8s cluster locally. You could be close but as long as you don't run already in cloud you will have different configuration (additional annotations, various quirks that do not exist in kind/k3s but they are on GCP). However, making dedicated dev environments in the cloud might be very costly and incur a lot of additional tinkering.

How to edit code on host and map changes to container files?
If `host` means your production/staging hosts or whatever, you should get out of that habit now. Look into something like tilt.dev or telepresence.io or any number of other solutions that help solve this issue. Doing it directly on any host is just a recipe for bad habits and disaster.

An Overview of Docker Desktop Alternatives
The article doesn't mention k3d (https://k3d.io/) which is a variant of k3s that runs in docker (rather than a VM) - very nice for k8s dev/test on developer workstations.
It integrates very nicely with https://tilt.dev/ also (another very useful tool for k8s related dev/test).

Docker slow on MacOS with Cross tool?
If this is an issue during development then you can use something like tilt with docker-compose to directly copy modified source inside container and incrementally build it. https://tilt.dev/

Along similar lines, how about comparing Devspace to [Tilt](https://tilt.dev/)?

You've just inherited a legacy C++ codebase, now what?
A nice middle ground is using a tool like Google's Skaffold, which provides "Bazel-like" capabilities for composing Docker images and tagging them based on a number of strategies, including file manifests. In my case, I also use build args to explicitly set versions of external dependencies.
While I am in a Typescript environment with this setup at the moment, my personal experience that Skaffold with Docker has a lighter implementation and maintenance overhead than Bazel. (You also get the added benefit of easy deployment and automatic rebuilds.)
I quite liked using Bazel in a small Golang monorepo, but I ran into pain when trying to do things like include third-party pre-compiled binaries in the Docker builds, because of the unusual build rules convention. The advantage of Skaffold is it provides a thin build/tag/deploy/verify layer over Docker and other container types. Might be worth a look!
Kudos to the Google team building it! https://skaffold.dev

Simplifying preview environments for everyone
To get a similar experience of preevy up, first we’ll need to split the build and deploy using process or alternatively employ tools that orchestrate build-tag-push-update-sync flow like Skaffold/Tilt.
- Is there a way to hot reload the code running in a container when I edit the codebase in VSCode?

Set up docker and kubernetes in ubuntu 22.04
We will be using docker and microk8s from Canonical. For running our software during development, we will be using skaffold which is a great tool developed by Google.

one container for a UI and one for express server. For dev would like to docker compose up. Couple questions
To add more context, if you are developing containers in a local dev environment, the minimum you should have is the Google Cloud SDK and Skaffold. The SDK will allow you to programmatically interact with Googleapis e.g. auth, services, resources. Skaffold will allow you to build and deploy to the cloud similar to working with a local dev environment.

How do you develop cloud-native applications locally on Kubernetes?
I have used both Skaffold and Devspace. I prefer the latter.

Does anyone else feel like this?
skaffold.dev - build in k8s - no more asking for the database password. All the plumbing to the backend is just done so it's easier for them to test and demo any branch
