We built Kanivet to bring the scattered Kubernetes workflow into one place. Instead of jumping between kubectl, dashboards, cloud consoles, Helm tools, logs, metrics, and terminal tabs, Kanivet gives you a desktop IDE for Kubernetes-related work: cluster exploration, real-time logs, metrics, Helm releases, YAML editing, terminal access, port forwarding, cost visibility, and multi-cluster management. It also supports extension-style workflows for ecosystem tools like Argo and Crossplane, so Kubernetes-adjacent debugging can live beside the cluster context that matters. Keyboard-first navigation is there for speed, but the main idea is simple: one focused tool for the Kubernetes work engineers do every day. I’d love feedback from SREs, platform engineers, DevOps teams, and Kubernetes users. What integrations or workflows should Kanivet support next?
