Show HN: K10s – A Clickable Kubernetes TUI (Go, Bubble Tea)

k10s is a new Kubernetes terminal user interface (TUI) built in Go using Bubble Tea framework. This application is designed to be a point-and-click, instantly searchable, and themeable interface that learns your Kubernetes cluster, namespaces, and selected objects.

k10s is intended to be a more user-friendly alternative to k9s by providing an intuitive, more accessible interface for managing Kubernetes resources. To install k10s, simply use the provided prebuilt binaries for various operating systems and architectures, which are updated automatically on every tag release. The installation process verifies the SHA256 hash against the release manifest to ensure binary integrity.

k10s offers a wide range of features, including:

1. Comprehensive cluster monitoring and management capabilities, covering workloads, network, configuration, storage, RBAC, cluster management, and custom resources.

2. Automatic discovery of custom resources without any configuration required.

3. Groups fold and expand based on user interaction, reducing clutter and focusing on relevant information.

4. Seamless integration with AI capabilities, allowing users to interact with the application using natural language queries.

5. Customizable themes and palettes for a personalized user experience.

6. Full compatibility with kubectl, enabling users to execute arbitrary shell commands within the application.

k10s can be installed on macOS, Linux, and Windows systems, with prebuilt binaries available for each architecture. The application also supports offline demo mode, allowing users to familiarize themselves with k10s without requiring an actual Kubernetes cluster.

The application is built upon the success of k9s, which has gained popularity for its extensive feature set and plugin ecosystem. However, k10s focuses on providing a simpler, more accessible interface for users who may not have extensive experience with Kubernetes or TUI interfaces.
