Introducing Google's Cloud Code plugin

If you are working to develop or maintain cloud-native applications in today's age, then it is a sort of unspoken truth that you need a set of tools or a tool to ease your development process. As developers, we typically do the following tasks in the inner development loop:

• Download specific dependencies such as Skaffold, minikube, and kubectl to set up the local development environment.
• Do a lot of context switching to view logs, documentation, and browse the cloud vendor-provided console.

While Skaffold is an excellent solution to this problem, would it not be nice to have everything clubbed into your IDE? For example, we can add a plugin that can do all these tasks and focus on the coding part.
