Description

Developer experience—the tools, workflows, interfaces, and patterns you use to build applications—is critical to the success of any Cloud Native project. Good developer experience abstracts away the inherent complexity of a Kubernetes system, offering developers a fast path to productivity.

In Developer Experience on Kubernetes, you will learn how to:

Create and manage an end-to-end developer environment on Kubernetes
Identify and efficiently resolve application developer pain points
Communicate and collaborate with other development teams
Self-service cloud native runtimes and services
Evaluate and adopt tools and processes for observability, CI/CD integration, local development, and more
Build hands-on projects using Go and Java

Developers thrive when they can focus on problem-solving rather than wrestling with tooling complexity or inefficient processes. A positive developer experience empowers software creators to deliver value to their customers by maintaining flow and productivity. Good developer experience combines development tools, frameworks, platforms and organizational processes into a well-designed, low-friction development infrastructure.

about the book

Developer Experience on Kubernetes introduces developer-optimized tools and practices, ranging from local development to Kubernetes in production, illustrated by practical use cases that demonstrate the impact of these important technology choices. The book brings together the entire software development lifecycle from an application developer perspective, providing a coherent and cohesive view on how to work effectively on cloud native applications. The goal is to give you tools, processes, and strategies that you can apply immediately in real-world development.

Authors Maricio Salatino and Thomas Vitale take a modular approach to developer experience, making it possible for you to adopt different tools and practices based on your own needs. You’ll get guidance for assessing and improving your existing developer experience, including under-emphasized areas like security, continuous delivery, and configuration. Along the way, you’ll meet many powerful tools from the Kubernetes ecosystem, including Podman, Testcontainers, Cloud Native Buildpacks, OpenTelemetry, Dapr, OpenFeature, Knative, Ollama, and more.
