1. traefik

   1 198 54,703 9.6 Go

   The Cloud Native Application Proxy

   

   Project mention: 10 Lightweight API Gateways for Your Next Project | dev.to | 2025-04-30

   With some more work, you could configure proxies that work lower on the infrastructure level, like NGINX, Envoy Proxy, HAProxy, or Traefik Proxy to give you the classic API gateway functionality. There's also KrakenD as another open-source option.

4. metallb

   3 80 7,516 9.2 Go

   A network load-balancer implementation for Kubernetes using standard routing protocols

   

   Project mention: Let's Make a k3s Cluster with Raspberry Pi and Cloudflare Tunnel | dev.to | 2024-08-15

   The very first step for this project is to have your Raspberry Pi up and running. This also includes SSH set up. If you already have a running one (or more) you can skip this step. One thing I want to note here is that I personally recommend you to not use WiFi connection, instead utilize wired connection which is more reliable and fast. I occasionally experienced unexpected disconnection and had to reboot my k3s when I had run MetalLB on the cluster, which we won't use it in this project though.
