/ About /

Skaffold is an open-source command-line tool from Google that automates the workflow for building, pushing, and deploying containerized applications to Kubernetes. It operates entirely client-side with no cluster components, making it lightweight and easy to share across teams. It supports features like policy-based image tagging, file syncing, port-forwarding, and integrates with tools like Helm, Kustomize, and Kaniko.

/ How it works /

Skaffold runs client-side and automates the build, push, and deploy cycle, detecting code changes and updating the running application in seconds.

/ Who it's for /

Software developers building and deploying containerized applications on Kubernetes
