    Hey everyone new to this to this community. I create an internal tool that for K8s I want to open source. This tool takes in an opinionated JSON file that any dev can easily write based on their requirements and spits out all the necessary K8s manifest files. It works very well internally, but as you can imagine, making it open source is a different thing entirely. If anyone is interested in this, check it out: https://github.com/0dotxyz/json2k8s In any case, happy to be a part of this community.

    Hi everyone I am Sallam Chief Growth Officer from Stakpak.dev I joined the company myself because I was devOps engineer 10 years ago and what drew me to that AI agent was seeing how AI4Devops is transforming DevOps and IDPs. I’ve also been really inspired by how the team behind it is building in the open and supporting the community at such an early stage. I’d love to learn from this community, hear your perspectives on where platform engineering is heading and how AI4Devops would transform our domain, and share back what we’re seeing in our journey at Stakpak. Excited to be here and connect with you all!

    Hi everyone I joined the community to learn about platform engineering , Imi’m currently working as an integration manager. My main scope is developing API for internal and external parties in my company. I’m using a set of tools like for middleware , open source tools like Apache and spring. Also I am using API gateway in my daily work for exposing the API so one of the main concerns is to have a unified catalogue for my team to use templates or libraries or tools that’s why I was directed to such community of platform Engineering thank you
