Summary

In this chapter, we introduced you to Skaffold and some of its commands and concepts. In the example, we have introduced you to only one Skaffold command—that is, skaffold dev. However, there are many such commands, for example, skaffold run and skaffold render, which we will cover in upcoming chapters. You have also learned how to build and deploy applications with Skaffold using commands such as skaffold dev to the local Kubernetes cluster.

In the next chapter, we will learn about Skaffold features and architectures.
