I’be been self employed for ~1.5yrs after quitting my job to build a GUI for Kubernetes [1]

It’s not easy to get started, but im very happy with this change after being a FTE for 15yrs. It’s a refreshing experience having to talk to customers to understand their pain points and then build something for it

I’m also doing some part time freelancing, so with my products + freelancing I’m earning way more than as a FTE

Hey I bought aptakube! Very neat product, doesn't suffer from any of the issues that the other GUI k8s apps have. I found it on an awesome-tauri github list.

However I still rely on k9s due to the key bindings and plugin system being irreplaceable. That could change, I'd really like to do things like toggle FluxCD resources or do other custom actions directly in aptakube.

Great product!

Thank you :)

I’ve been thinking of building custom UI for popular CRDs like FluxCD/Argo/others, but I need to get a few highly requested features out of the way first.
