Overview
Okteto gives each developer a production-like remote development environment on Kubernetes, plus preview environments tied to pull requests, available as cloud or self-hosted. The goal is to kill the gap between local dev and production by letting developers code against a real cluster namespace. Developer and platform teams already running Kubernetes who want consistent, ephemeral dev and preview environments are the audience. It is Kubernetes-centric, so it assumes that foundation, and team pricing is quote-based. The production-parity dev environments and PR previews are what set it apart from purely local dev setups.
