About Gefyra
Building and pushing containers to test them in Kubernetes is repetitive and time-consuming. Writing and debugging code that depends on services in Kubernetes is daunting. Especially if they are not reachable during development.
Gefyra is an Open Source project that runs local code in any Kubernetes cluster without the build and push cycle. It overlays containers in the cluster making code changes immediately available.
Gefyra enables you to:
- Run containers and talk to internal services on an external Kubernetes cluster
- Operate feature-branches in a production-like Kubernetes environment with all adjacent services
- Overlay Kubernetes cluster-internal services with you local container.
- Leverage development clusters for multiple developers at the same time.
- Write code in the IDE you already love
- Leverage all the neat development features, such as debugger, code-hot-reloading, overriding
- Run high-level integration tests against all dependent services
