The goals of this project seem great at first glance as it allows you to have unified paradigm for development environment management allowing for local, k8s, and ssh-based connections described in declarative yaml. I'll definitely keep an eye on this.

Like Telepresence[1], it allows swapping out of a running pod with a local environment. Is there a potential to dump the environment's environment variables to allow for integration with IDE debuggers, similar to what is described here [2]?

Is there support for multiple kubernetes clusters?

Can it only swap out pods? Or is there a way to declaratively deploy if not already running and swap out?

Also, it would be nice to be able to avoid needing to run as privileged in some way.

Hi,

You’re right, actually it’s just about swapping a pod but I will think about adding the feature of deploying a new pod on an environment :)

Privileges are needed mainly for writing in /etc/hosts file
