🚨 Contribfest: Making SlimToolkit XRAY Even Easier to Use: Building a Terminal UI

Friday November 15, 2024 11:00am - 12:30pm MST

Salt Palace | Level 3 | 355 A

SlimToolkit has an interactive prompt mode that makes it easy to pick the right flags and values you'd need to configure the tool commands that let you inspect, minify and debug your containers. The interactive prompt mode helps you only with the setup part of the command execution. The command output is still the same CLI text output and it can be improved by presenting the output in a more tabular and a more interactive way. The "XRAY" command in SlimToolkit is a great candidate for this enhancement. The command output gives you a lot of information about the target image including what's inside including the files inside. Let's build a TUI to make it easy navigate the container file system and the discovered metadata. No low level SlimToolkit or container technology domain is necessary. You only need to know basic Go and you need to be open to learning a few of TUI Go libraries (e.g., Bubble Tea, Bubbles and Lip Gloss)

🚨 Contribfest: Hop Aboard and Contribute to Headlamp

Friday November 15, 2024 2:00pm - 3:30pm MST

Salt Palace | Level 3 | 355 A

Headlamp is a Kubernetes UI with a focus on usability, flexibility, and extensibility. It is an open source, CNCF Sandbox, project, and can be run as a desktop application, or as a web app. One of Headlamp’s main features is its plugin system, which allows users and vendors to extend its basic functionality and create their own customized Kubernetes user experience. In this Contribufest session, Headlamp’s maintainers will work with the participants to onboard them to Headlamp development. Participants will start by building the project and creating a small plugin. We also invite everyone interested to join us in brainstorming ideas for the project and its community.
