kpt is a package-centric toolchain that enables a WYSIWYG configuration authoring, automation, and delivery experience, which simplifies managing Kubernetes platforms and KRM-driven infrastructure (e.g., Config Connector, Crossplane) at scale by manipulating declarative Configuration as Data.
Configuration as Data is an approach to management of configuration which:
- makes configuration data the source of truth, stored separately from the live state
- uses a uniform, serializable data model to represent configuration
- separates code that acts on the configuration from the data and from packages / bundles of the data
- abstracts configuration file structure and storage from operations that act upon the configuration data; clients manipulating configuration data don’t need to directly interact with storage (git, container images).
See the FAQ for more details about how kpt is different from alternatives.
