The Kubernetes manifest resource has graduated from beta to official support, allowing users to manage custom resource definitions (CRDs), custom resources, and other unsupported Kubernetes resources using Terraform. This new resource provides a pure Terraform way of declaring arbitrary Kubernetes manifests in HCL, enabling dynamic management of Kubernetes API resources without relying on additional providers. The resource can be used to create any Kubernetes API resource, including CRDs, and is recommended for converting YAML manifests to HCL. Users who were already using the kubernetes-alpha provider alongside the official Kubernetes provider can simply remove it and use the new manifest resource instead. The resource has limitations, such as requiring access to the Kubernetes API at plan time and slower performance compared to named resources in the provider. Future work includes adding import support, greater flexibility in waiting for conditions and events, and a data source analog to the manifest resource.
