It’s designed for teams that want to automate Kubernetes based infrastructure and not reinvent automation. Think of it this way, Kubestack is to Terraform and infrastructure automation, what Spring Boot is to Java and cloud native applications. The framework supports all three major cloud providers and has been used as the foundation for a number of real world customer projects as part of my colleagues’ and my consulting work. It is fully documented, has a step-by-step tutorial to help users get started and even includes a local [GitOps development lab](https://www.kubestack.com/framework/documentation//tutorial-build-local-lab).
