Contour Ingress Intro and Deep Dive
summary
Contour is a control plane for Envoy with concrete metrics and features: 230 contributors, 41 new this year, 16 releases and 620 PRs with an average 12-hour PR turnaround. Demo shows a GatewayClass/Gateway/HTTPRoute workflow where an onboard provisioner auto-creates Contour and Envoy, a service is attached, and a port-forward returns HTML — proving the Gateway API flow works. Roadmap items include Gateway API parity and conversion tooling, improved external auth/OAuth support, xDS optimizations, and tracing (issue #399).
