Summary

Kubernetes Lens is an open-source integrated development environment (IDE) for Kubernetes that simplifies K8s management by letting cloud-native developers manage and monitor clusters in real-time, providing a user-friendly graphical interface to deploy and manage clusters directly from the console. It offers features such as automatic cluster access, discovering local kubeconfig files, managing multiple clusters across diverse platforms, and automatically installing Prometheus instances for metrics and visualizations. Lens also integrates with various Kubernetes tools, provides extensions for customizing its functionality, and enables collaboration through Spaces, allowing teams to organize and access their clusters from anywhere.
