Ask HN: What features would your ideal k8s ARO tool have?

1 points by gscho ↗ HN
Hi all. I'm currently working on a GUI-based tool for creating/generating/managing kubernetes manifests. It will have a similar approach to gitlab "autodevops" where you can add a k8s connection and manage your releases except you won't have to create the manifests by hand but rather through the GUI. I'd love to here from anyone who has interest in such a tool or even anyone who thinks this won't work. Any features you'd like to see in a tool like this?

How would this work under automation, like in a CI/CD pipeline?
Right now the plan is to provide an integration API that you can use to trigger a k8s deployment from your CI tool of choice. Some more common CI systems like Jenkins will have their own step in the release workflow which will allow you to trigger a job for example, much like Azure DevOps.
