Hey folks I’ve been working on a project called Yoke, which lets you manage Kubernetes resources using real, type-safe Go code instead of YAML. In this blog post, I explore a new f…

Thanks! Very appreciated. Also, it has a kro-like operator for deploying packages defined as code. If the operators you are writing are just managing resources and not doing anythi…

Managing Kubernetes resources with YAML templates can quickly turn into an unreadable mess. I got tired of fighting it, so I built Yoke. Yoke is a client-side CLI (like Helm) but i…

Yoke is often compared to Helm as an alternative package manager. At a surface level, this comparison is valid because the Yoke core CLI offers functionality very similar to Helm. …

Writing your own operator is a lot of complexity when what you want to do is deploy a package. Via Yoke's AirTrafficController, it's easy to define a package as a CRD and its imple…

Hi. I think the article was just showing the example that IaC tools use configuration languages instead of code. Yoke is not a terraform replacement, and does not mention terraform…

I actually really like CUE. I use it kind of extensively as a YAML replacement where I can, and at my work we've done our best to integrate cue with our charts to validate the valu…

I am not saying that Turing incomplete languages don’t or can’t be a good fit for this task. However there’s no reason we should rule out general purpose languages. We have a lot o…

Why limit yourself to those types of tools? To protect against somebody writing a non-terminating program? General programming languages come with a lot of general purpose benefits…

I have been developing my own package manager, and my core idea is that proper programming languages are the proper level for describing packages. Programs take inputs and can outp…
