About

Cyclops is an open-source Kubernetes developer portal that allows platform engineering teams to create customizable, form-based deployment interfaces that abstract Kubernetes YAML and Helm chart complexity away from application developers. The platform works by letting platform teams define module templates — Helm-compatible configurations with annotated fields — which Cyclops renders as structured web forms that developers can fill in to deploy their applications without writing or reading Kubernetes manifests. This template-driven approach lets the platform team encode their organization's deployment standards and best practices into the UI itself, ensuring developers can only deploy configurations that comply with the constraints the platform team has defined.
