  • devtron

    Tool integration platform for Kubernetes

  • Hey man, I agree with the fact that it needs to run in a k8s cluster and is not a 100% k8s client. If you want to see Devtron as purely k8s client, please upvote the issue - https://github.com/devtron-labs/devtron/issues/2884

  • octant

    Discontinued Highly extensible platform for developers to better understand the complexity of Kubernetes clusters.

  • InfluxDB

    🐶 Kubernetes CLI To Manage Your Clusters In Style!

  • Lens was such a great tool until they switched to the subscription model. I now use k9s (https://k9scli.io/).

  • openlens-node-pod-menu

  • lens

  • Intentional. As you called out, they're moving to a more premium model. https://github.com/lensapp/lens/issues/6823

  • devtron

  • Hey, have you tried Devtron (github.com/devtron-labs/devtron). It's a 100% open source Kubernetes Dashboard and recently it released features like Kubernetes Resource Browser, Cluster Management, etc to easily manage your applications and cluster across multiple clouds/ on-prem clusters like k3s, microk8s, etc. Additionally you can use your fav CLI tools like k9s, netshoot, busybox, kubectl, etc through its cluster-terminal-access to manage your clusters with the CLI feel, though cluster operations like - taint a node, cordon, drain, debug, real-time node heath, etc can be managed through the dashboard as well.
