Welcome here 👋 and thank you for sharing !
It seems great on the implementation side. But I'm wondering what the advantage would be on Kubefwd, which port-forwards every services at once with dedicated hosts. It seems to me much easier to use.
What do you think ?
Hey there!
You've got a point about Kubefwd, and it's definitely a strong choice for bulk port-forwarding services with dedicated hosts. It simplifies a lot, making it super accessible for quick use cases.
The cool thing about kftray, from my perspective, is its focus on flexibility and specific-use features. For example, it shines when you need more granular control over your port forwards, like dealing with individual services or when UDP support is a must. Plus, its GUI makes managing multiple forwards visually straightforward, which can be a plus for quickly identifying and adjusting your forwards on the fly.
Also, the integration with GitHub for configuration sync is something that really helps in keeping team environments in sync without manually sharing scripts or configs. It’s all about giving you and your team the right tools to be as productive as possible.
Both tools have their sweet spots, and it’s great we have options to choose what fits best with our workflow and the task at hand. Appreciate your curiosity and keen to hear any further thoughts you might have!
