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.

Self-service infrastructure as code
We stumbled upon a project for maintaining Terraform with CRDs that we could deploy with Helm. That project is now called Tofu-Controller - another WeaveWorks project, so it integrated great with our existing Flux setup.

Disaster Recovery for AWS EKS Infra
Weave's TF-Controller, which also has fewer bugs, much better adoption, and it looks like it's actually being developed by someone. But requires a weird argocd <-> flux interop boilerplate. It's a "controller for flux" and not a Kubernetes controller, and I don't really get such ambiguous targeting , but meh...

Migrate from terragrunt to terraform
Wrt tools, I wanted to integrate terraform with Flux thanks to their tf-controller. Conciling the core gitops features with terraform would be great imho.
-
My recently deployed media apps in ArgoCD, migrating from Terraform.
I'm using Flux instead of Argo which has support for running terraform from a given Git Repo or OCI artifact so essentially I still fall back on Terraform when needed and it's applied via GitOps.

Automate your Terraform using GitOps with Flux
While searching for alternatives for running Terraform using Kubernetes, I found several controllers and operators, but none that I felt had as much potential as the tf-controller from Weaveworks. We are already using Flux as our GitOps tool, and the tf-controller works by utilizing some of the core functionality from Flux, and has a custom resource for Terraform deployments. The source controller takes care of fetching our modules, the kustomize controllers apply the Terraform resources, and then the controller spin up static pods (called runners) that runs your Terraform commands.

2022 was a great year for GitOps
For us, GitOps is a vital part of how we operate, and it is the magic sauce that fuels our platform offering. Not only do we use it for application deployments, but by utilizing the Weaveworks tf-controller, we can create services using Terraform to automate our infrastructure deployments.

Terraform to deploy and KEDA to scale - will it work?
Some further research brought me to Weaveworks' TF-Controller which appears to be able to do what I want at least for the initial deployment step. Flux CD (also by Weaveworks) integrates with KEDA now, so it would be great if it could also integrate with KEDA to manage terraform-deployed Azure resources.

Introducing a Custom Operator for Unified Management of Kubernetes Tools
KOM operates within kubernetes environments where Flux or ArgoCD is installed.

Self-service infrastructure as code
Given the team had already adopted GitOps and were familiar with deployments powered by Helm Releases and Flux, we wanted to move the provisioning of the infrastructure to be part of the same process of creating the service and its continuous deployment.

Weaveworks Is Shuting Down
Your GitHub action can trigger a helm chart, or series thereof, or other infra tools. Declarative specifications, triggered procedurally with the context of the branch’s latest build. We use this pattern quite extensively for preview app workflows.
As of a year ago this is possible in a fully declarative way with Flux 2, but there’s a lot more moving parts and security footguns - and the idea that the maintenance of this project has lost one of its primary sponsors is worrying at best.

10 Ways for Kubernetes Declarative Configuration Management
FluxCD - FluxCD is another popular GitOps tool that allows developers to use a Git repository as the sole source of configuration. Flux automatically ensures that the state of the Kubernetes cluster is synchronized with the configuration in the Git repository. It supports automatic updates, meaning Flux can monitor Docker image repositories for new images and push updates to the cluster.

Best Kubernetes DevOps Tools: A Comprehensive Guide
Flux CD enables continuous deployment to Kubernetes through GitOps by syncing Git repositories with Kubernetes clusters. Flux CD enables GitOps for Kubernetes through source control integration. It manages Kubernetes manifests as code and syncs git repo changes to clusters. Flux automates checks, deployments, and updates within clusters.

Git going with GitOps on AKS: A Step-by-Step Guide using FluxCD AKS Extension
FluxCD is a GitOps tool developed by Weaveworks that allows you to implement continuous and progressive delivery of your applications on Kubernetes. It is a CNCF graduated project that offers a set of controllers to monitor Git repositories and reconciles the cluster's actual state with the desired state defined by manifests committed in the repo.

Reducing Cloud Costs on Kubernetes Dev Envs
Instead, we will create a single long-lived cluster, and deploy our application in different namespaces. There are a bunch of ways to do that - see ArgoCD, Flux, custom internal tooling, or other solutions (we use our own product). That way, we:
