Viktor Farcic explores kro, a tool for defining higher-level abstractions for Kubernetes resources, and compares it with Crossplane.
Discover how to build internal developer platforms by composing resources and exposing them through APIs. In this video, we explore the new project, kro, which allows developers to define higher-level abstractions for Kubernetes resources. Learn how to simplify the creation of Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) and controllers to enable developers to be self-sufficient. We'll go through a step-by-step setup, showcase examples, and compare kro with other tools like KubeVela and Crossplane. Join us as we delve into this exciting project and see if it could be a game-changer for your development workflow!

Victor Faric did a review, which is worth consideration:

While testing Kro, he found some issues that suggest the project needs some maturation. His point is that Kro really competes more with Crossplane compositions than helm.
I certainly intend to keep an eye on Kro since the technology has been reportedly endorsed by AWS, Google, and Azure.
Hope this helps.
