Kubernetes and its CLI kubectl are essentially written in the Go language. If you want to extend them by creating Kubernetes operators or kubectl plugins, you will need some knowledge on the client-go library, the Kubernetes API and the tools to create and test your solutions. Philippe will introduce the client-go library with some simple development and testing. Next, Philippe will present the KubeBuilder framework, one of the tools used to create Kubernetes operators, by demonstrating the development of a simple operator making easy the deployment of a series of static websites. Finally, Philippe will present the development of a kubectl plugin and its insertion in the krew index (krew is the kubectl plugin manager).
