Develop Directly on Kubernetes with Okteto
summary
Okteto is demonstrated by deploying a three‑microservice “Taco Shop” app to a real Kubernetes cluster (Civo) with LocalStack simulating AWS. The demo shows using okteto deploy to build Helm charts and launch services, and okteto up to sync local files into running pods so code edits appear instantly without rebuilding images; it also mentions an editor plugin for remote debugging and commands to tear down namespaces. The project is mature (about four years, ~70 contributors, ~2,972 GitHub stars) and focuses on fast iterative development directly in the same Kubernetes environment used for production.
