A Low Friction Development Workflow for Kubernetes Services

A basic development workflow for Kubernetes services involves creating a similar environment for development and production, using tools like Docker, Envoy/Ambassador, and Kubernetes, to ensure parity across environments and simplify the onboarding process for new developers. This approach enables fast code/build/test cycles, automates deployment, and provides live coding capabilities with Telepresence, which allows for bi-directional proxying to a remote Kubernetes cluster. By using Forge to template-ize the deployment process, developers can quickly deploy microservices into Kubernetes, reducing latency in the feedback cycle.
