Opinionated platform that runs on Kubernetes to take you from Code to URL in one step.

E2E tests:

Epinio makes it easy for developers to iterate on their applications running in Kubernetes. Easy means:

• No experience with Kubernetes is required
• No steep learning curve
• Quick local setup with minimal configuration
• Deploying to production similar to development

Kubernetes is becoming the de-facto standard for container orchestration. Developers may want to use Kubernetes for all the benefits it provides or may have to do so because that's what their Ops team has chosen. Whatever the case, using Kubernetes is not simple. It has a steep learning curve and doing it right is a full time job. Developers should spend their time working on their applications, not doing operations.

Epinio is adding the needed abstractions and intelligence to allow Developers to use Kubernetes as a PaaS (Platform as a Service).

Detailed installation and user documentation is available at our main docs.epinio.io site.

The basic boilerplate requires a Kubernetes cluster, an Ingress Controller and a Cert Manager as detailed in the documentation. Once this is in place, and leaving out DNS setup, in the most trivial case the main installation boils down to

helm repo add epinio https://epinio.github.io/helm-charts
helm repo update

helm install --namespace epinio --create-namespace epinio epinio/epinio \                                               --set global.domain=mydomain.example.com

For the details glossed over here see the documentation.

Installation of the Epinio CLI can be as simple as downloading a binary from the release page, or usage of brew, i.e.

brew install epinio
