With its CLI, you can generate a complete application from scratch in only a few commands, or manage a complex system at scale. -`ksonnet` allows you to express the patterns across your -infrastructure and reuse these powerful "templates" across many -services, and then manage those templates as files in version control. -The more complex your infrastructure is, the more you will gain from -using kubecfg. +Specifically, ksonnet allows you to: +* *Reuse* common manifest patterns (within your app or from external libraries) +* *Customize* manifests directly with powerful object concatenation syntax +* *Deploy* app manifests to multiple environments +* *Diff* across environments to compare two running versions of your app +* *Track* the entire state of your app manifests in version control -Status: Basic functionality works, and the tool is usable. The focus -now is on clearer error reporting and advanced features. +*STATUS: Development is ongoing—this tool is pre-alpha.* ## Install -- GitLab
