Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "Internally, Skaffold creates a tar file with changed files that match the sync rules we define in the skaffold.yaml file."

A block of code is set as follows:

profiles:
  - name: userDefinedPortForward
    portForward:
      - localPort: 9090
        port: 8080
        resourceName: reactive-web-app
        resourceType: deployment

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

curl -Lo skaffold https://storage.googleapis.com/skaffold/releases/latest/skaffold-linux-amd64 && \sudo install skaffold /usr/local/bin/

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "Now that we have a working project, click the Run/Debug Configurations dropdown and select Edit Configurations."
