Dev Notes

Sorry if this is noise. I couldn't join the slack and felt that it is too important to risk going unmentioned.

Hi @hab25, thanks for stopping by!

We have looked at kf in the past, but the design is quite different from Korifi. Korifi aims to provide a CF compatible API so that the existing CF CLI and other clients can continue to work with it, whereas kf provides a replacement CLI that interacts directly with the Kubernetes cluster. For example, here you can see how it reimplements the cf push command to interact directly with the cluster. As you can imagine, this makes the implementation quite different between kf and korifi.

We also had a CF on K8s working group sync where someone from the kf team stopped by and chatted about it with us. It's recorded here if you're curious and want to watch:

That said, are there specific features of kf that you are interested in that you think Korifi should support? We're always looking for user feedback about what to develop next!

Side note, did you run into problems joining Slack? Or did you just prefer not to. If it's the former and you had some problem with the invite flow on https://slack.cloudfoundry.org/ we would like to help you figure that out.

Hi @tcdowney, thanks for the details. Glad you're already aware of kf.

That said, are there specific features of kf that you are interested in that you think Korifi should support?

No, my understanding of both projects is still shallow.

Side note, did you run into problems joining Slack?

Yes.

If it's the former and you had some problem with the invite flow on https://slack.cloudfoundry.org/ we would like to help you figure that out.

I think I had clicked on some other link as this screen with the email input field is unfamiliar. This one seems to have worked as it gave me confirmation that my request to join went through.

Cool, glad that worked! We're all in the #korifi-dev channel on CF Slack if you want to have a higher fidelity conversation on any of this.
