kat – TUI and rule-based rendering engine for Kubernetes manifests

kat automatically invokes manifest generators like helm or kustomize, and provides a persistent, navigable view of rendered resources, with support for live reloading, integrated validation, and more.

It is made of two main components, which can be used together or independently:

• A rule-based engine for automatically rendering and validating manifests.
• A terminal UI for browsing and debugging rendered Kubernetes manifests.

Together, these deliver a seamless development experience that maintains context and focus while iterating on Helm charts, Kustomize overlays, and other manifest generators.
