Why would anyone re-implement Kubernetes from scratch? And why use Scratch, the graphical programming language from MIT? The best way to understand a machine is to take it apart and put it back together again, but how can we apply this to Kubernetes, which isn’t so easy to take apart? In the code, one is quickly overwhelmed with the nuances of protobufs, channels, and goroutines. Examples can be equally perplexing: why, exactly, would I cuddle a kube? Come see K8s through the eyes of a 14-year-old, re-creating core k8s components in their simplest form with Scratch. Topics include Explain It Like I’m 14 (because one of us is), some surprising things we learned (even after years of working with k8s), and how to pass the torch to the next generation. New users will learn Kubernetes by breaking it down into simple controllers, and veteran contributors will be empowered to tackle the most difficult task of all: explaining your job to your children.
