KubeKanvas Documentation

Your bridge between the KubeKanvas visual Kubernetes IDE and your clusters.

KubeKanvas Documentation

Everything you need to manage Kubernetes visually — from installing the KubeKanvas CLI and connecting your clusters, to encrypting Secrets at design time and automating deployments through CI/CD pipelines.

Quick start:

Install the CLI, log in, configure your clusters, and connect — then deploy visually designed Kubernetes workloads in seconds.

CLI

Installation & Upgrade

Get the KubeKanvas CLI installed on macOS, Windows, or Linux. Configure your environment for Kubernetes cluster management.

Concepts

Understand why the KubeKanvas CLI exists, how it connects your local Kubernetes clusters to the visual IDE, and the core workflow.

Command Reference

Complete reference for every KubeKanvas CLI command — authentication, cluster configuration, deployment, encryption keys, and more.

Secrets

Secret Encryption

Encrypt Kubernetes Secrets in the browser before they leave your device. Zero-trust by design — the private key never leaves your cluster agent.

Helm

Helm Deployment Automation

Use the helm-kubekanvas post-renderer to decrypt AGE-encrypted values at deploy time in CI/CD pipelines — no plaintext secrets in your pipeline.
