About:
Lens is an open-source, extensible Kubernetes IDE designed for developers and DevOps teams. It provides a comprehensive graphical interface to manage clusters, visualize resources, and troubleshoot workloads. The tool connects to multiple Kubernetes contexts, offering real-time insights and streamlined operations for complex cloud-native environments.
Key Features:
  • Multi-cluster management with context switching
  • Real-time resource visualization and monitoring
  • Built-in terminal for kubectl and Helm operations
  • Extensible via plugins for custom workflows
  • Integrated Helm chart and manifest editor
Use Cases:
  • Debugging pod issues and viewing logs across multiple clusters
  • Visualizing resource relationships and cluster topology
  • Managing Helm releases and applying manifest updates
Alternatives:
  • k9s – Terminal-based UI vs Lens's graphical interface; k9s is lighter weight for terminal-only environments
  • OpenLens – Open-source upstream of Lens; fewer proprietary features but similar core functionality
