Draft: Streamlined Kubernetes Development

Draft makes it easy to build applications that run on Kubernetes. Draft targets the "inner loop" of a developer's workflow: as they hack on code, but before code is committed to version control.

NOTE: Draft is experimental and does not have a stable release yet.

As an example, starting with the 0.12 release Draft moves the containment and deployment engine to your local machine. This changes quite a bit about how Draft works compared to prior releases; for details, see the changelog.

Overview

Using Draft is as simple as:

1. draft init to set up draft (after prerequisites are installed)
2. draft create to containerize your application based on Draft packs
3. draft up to deploy your application to a Kubernetes dev sandbox, accessible using draft connect over a secured tunnel.
4. Use a local editor to modify the application, with changes deployed to Kubernetes in seconds.
