Meta Framework for Kubernetes: TypeScript Meets Cluster Control

Kubernetes doesn’t have to be hard. In this talk, we’ll explore kubernetes-fluent-client, a TypeScript-based meta framework that makes working with the Kubernetes API intuitive even if you’ve never touched client-go. From building controllers to managing subresources like logs, scale, and proxy, this talk dives into how the fluent client simplifies cluster interaction through a clear, expressive API, server-side apply, and custom informers. Whether you’re writing automation or full-blown operators, you’ll walk away ready to build Kubernetes-native applications faster and with less boilerplate. KFC is the Kubernetes Client that serves as the engine for Pepr (An Admission Controller and Operator Framework built in TypeScript) and is an npm package.
