Carvel: small tools for joyfully deploying apps to Kubernetes
summary
Carvel presents seven single-purpose tools and the demo builds a small app with three configMaps, Deployments, Service and Ingress wired together. It shows ytt templating generating per-fruit configMaps and overlays to mutate upstream YAML, then uses kbld to resolve image tags to digests and produce an image lock, and imgpkg bundles to push a non-runnable OCI bundle and relocate images to a private registry. Deployment uses kapp deploy which orders resources, waits for readiness and turns a failing restart loop into a zero-restart successful rollout.
