For those of us that use Hashistack, there is Damon, which is like k9s. K9s is the only thing that allowed me to suffer using k8s.

I use Lens (https://k8slens.dev/) but it is dual licensed like VSCode

There is also OpenLens (https://github.com/MuhammedKalkan/OpenLens). And for anyone switching from Lens, pod shell and logs functionality can be found as an extension.

I don't know how I could use K8s without k9s. Great project.

Here is the link of k9s. Great project as well. https://github.com/derailed/k9s

I love it! I searched for a "k9s but for docker" and found lazydocker and ctop. I went with ctop because it looks nice and I don't like terminal programs that use the mouse.

Can you explain why is it useful? I tried kubernetes-dashboard and lens but in the end I've found ordinary kubectl good enough for my needs.

for one you don't have to remember all the kubectl command names

for another it is much faster to do things, a couple abbreviated vi-like commands vs. long commandline args

k9s is great. JetBrains IDEs also come with a really good k8s (and docker) plugin.
