K9s is a terminal based UI to interact with your Kubernetes clusters. The aim of this project is to make it easier to navigate, observe and manage your deployed applications in the wild. K9s continually watches Kubernetes for changes and offers subsequent commands to interact with your observed resources. Provides standard cluster management commands such as logs, scaling, port-forwards, restarts. Define your own command shortcuts for quick navigation via command aliases and hotkeys. Plugin support to extend K9s to create your very own cluster commands. Powerful filtering mode to allow user to drill down and view workload related resources. Supports for viewing RBAC rules such as cluster/roles and their associated bindings. Reverse lookup to asserts what a user/group or ServiceAccount can do on your clusters. You can benchmark your HTTP services/pods directly from K9s to see how your application fare and adjust your resources request/limit accordingly.
