Carvel Tools for Kubernetes

1 hour 1 minute

🙌 My next course is coming soon! I've opened the waitlist for those wanting to go deep in GitHub Actions for DevOps and AI automation in 2025. I'm so thrilled to announce this course. The waitlist allows you to quickly sign up for some content updates, discounts, and more as I finish building the course.

Bret is joined by Dmitriy Kalinin and John Ryan, software engineers at VMWare, to show off the many Carvel project tools.

Carvel provides a set of reliable, single-purpose, composable tools that aid in your application building, configuration, and deployment to Kubernetes. The Carvel project includes tools for templating, image building and tracking, secrets management, app deploying and more. The tool list includes ytt, kapp, kapp-controller, kbld, imgpkg, vendir, and kwt.

Streamed live on YouTube on July 14, 2022.
