Writing about various features ksctl provides about docs

[dipankardas011]

acc to me you can refer the docs for topics

• you can tell what is ksctl
• what problems it tries to solve
• what solution it provides (till now)
  and some key features...

cc @verma-kunal @saiyam1814 you you have any thing to add

[shaikahmadnawaz]

Got it, Thank you @dipankardas011.

[shaikahmadnawaz]

Just completed the latest blog on Ksctl! 🚀 your review would be awesome! @dipankardas011

[dipankardas011]

Thanks @shaikahmadnawaz it looks amazing 🚀
It looks nice but can you add a simple demo of creation and deletion of clusters (both managed, HA)
Also manually scaleup and scaledown?

and finally add a section about the new feature for empowering development ready apps (Mention that its in alpha stage)

I know I am asking more but we should show what it can do

[shaikahmadnawaz]

Hello @dipankardas011, in which folder (absolute path) of this repo shall I raise a PR of the blog?

this is my Hashnode profile 👆, I think I need access to write in Kubesimplify blogs right?

[shaikahmadnawaz]

Access in the sense of permission to write for the Kubesimplify blog?

https://blog.kubesimplify.com

[dipankardas011]

I am not sure with the current process, but as far as I remember, you have to raise a PR to kblogs repo or you have to publish via hashnode

[dipankardas011]

@shaikahmadnawaz you have to directly submit it to hashnode

Also to demonstrate the working of custom CNI and development ready apps
https://kubesimplify.github.io/ksctl-docs/blog/1/01/01/feature-install-applications/

it works for both managed and HA cluster

I would suggest after doigng the above
you can say lets try some new experiemental aka alpha features
and use a managed offering as its easier and faster

For the apps options are

• argo-rollouts
• argocd
• istio
• prometheus-stack

for the cni

• cilium
• azure -> for aks
• flannel (default) -> for ha default in k3s so no need
• kubenet
• kind
