    It's super easy to run and works out of the box without installing anything in your cluster.

    No need to build containers, running from IDE.

    Gefyra gives Kubernetes-(“cloud-native”)-developers a completely new way of writing and testing their applications. Gone are the times of custom docker-compose setups, Vagrants, custom scripts or other scenarios in order to develop (micro-)services for Kubernetes.

    Gefyra does not need sudo privileges, does not have connection issues and also me to use Kubernetes patterns such as sidecar. Good stuff!

    With a DevSpace, you can build, test and run code directly inside any Kubernetes cluster. You can run devspace up in any of your projects and the client-only DevSpace CLI will start a DevSpace within your Kubernetes cluster.
