Estrato Manifesting

If you're like us and you spend a lot of time working with Kubernetes manifests, then we think you'll love Manifesting.
As soon as you move beyond a simple manifest, you need something to handle different environments, similar deployments, etc.
We used to use Kustomize but quickly got tired of dealing with tonnes of directories and files, and trying to figure out where everything was coming from.
So we built Manifesting to make our lives easier, and open-sourced it to make yours easier too

If you just want to get started with Manifesting then visit https://estratocloud.github.io/manifesting/ for installation and documentation. If you want to understand more about how it compares to Kustomize then read on…

Deploy different environments

Manifesting

Variables can be easily configured per environment, in the same file.

Resources can be conditionally created, the "debug" manifest is only generated in "nonprod"

Kustomize

Many files to navigate, unclear what the final value of any property will be without reviewing all files. To generate the output you need to know the entrypoint (eg kubectl kustomize overlays/production)
