KubeDesk is different: • Fast, responsive, and familiar • Keyboard-first—every action is one shortcut away • Zero configuration—works with your existing kubeconfig • Professional-grade—built for operators who live in Kubernetes REQUIREMENTS • macOS 13.0 (Ventura) or later • Valid kubeconfig file (~/.kube/config) • Network access to your Kubernetes clusters --- Built by operators, for operators.
