Lens is the only IDE you’ll ever need to take control of your Kubernetes clusters. It is a standalone application for MacOS, Windows and Linux operating systems. It is open source and free.

## What makes Lens special?
|

|
||
* Amazing usability and end user experience
|
||
* Multi cluster management; Support for hundreds of clusters
|

* Standalone application; No need to install anything in-cluster
|
||
* Real-time cluster state visualization
|
||
* Resource utilization charts and trends with history powered by built-in Prometheus
|
||
* Terminal access to nodes and containers
|
||
* Performance optimized to handle massive clusters (tested with a cluster running 25k pods)
|
||
* Full support for Kubernetes RBAC
|
||
|
||
## Installation
|
||
|
||
Download a pre-built package from the [releases](https://github.com/lensapp/lens/releases) page. Lens can be also installed via [snapcraft](https://snapcraft.io/kontena-lens) (Linux only).
|
||
|
||
## Development
|
||
|
||
> Prerequisites: Nodejs v12, make, yarn
|
||
|
||
* `make init` - initial compilation, installing deps, etc.
|
||
* `make dev` - builds and starts the app
|
||
* `make test` - run tests
|
||
|
||
## Development (advanced)
|
||
|
||
Allows faster separately re-run some of involved processes:
|
||
|
||
1. `yarn dev:main` compiles electron's main process and watch files
|
||
1. `yarn dev:renderer:vue` compiles electron's renderer vue-part
|
||
1. `yarn dev:renderer:react` compiles electron's renderer react-part
|
||
1. `yarn dev-run` runs app in dev-mode and restarts when electron's main process file has changed
|
||
|
||
Alternatively to compile both render parts in single command use `yarn dev:renderer`
