Good news! Nocalhost successfully joined the CNCF sandbox

On November 17, 2021, , a product of 161a747b17a391 Tencent Cloud CODING, officially passed the evaluation of the CNCF Technical Supervision Committee of the world's top open source foundation, and was successfully selected as a CNCF sandbox project. Nocalhost, as an open source cloud native development environment, aims to release the value of technology, realize innovation sharing, improve the efficiency of microservice application development under the Kubernetes environment, and promote the rapid evolution of cloud native with an open attitude.

In the cloud-native era, although the popularity of Kubernetes further shields the complexity of "microservice" applications in the deployment and operation and maintenance stages, for development, the cloud-native environment still brings many challenges to development. For example, after each coding, development needs to complete a series of processes such as rebuilding the mirror, pushing to the mirror warehouse, and modifying the workload mirror version to view the coding effect, which directly leads to poor development experience and low efficiency.

In addition, the cloud-native technology stack has a large span and the architecture design closely meets the needs of the business, so that the requirements for developers are higher, and the ensuing enterprise recruitment and employment costs have also risen. From this point of view, the current cloud-native development tools still cannot meet the needs at this stage, and the missing capabilities need to be further supplemented.

The emergence Nocalhost let developers gain a almost localized development experience , use Nocalhost develop Kubernetes applications, without having to rebuild Mirror, Mirror update version and wait Pod cluster scheduling process, local coding immediate effect, greatly improving the efficiency . Nocalhost also provides convenient one-key RUN and one-key debugging functions, further optimizing the development experience in the cloud native environment.

In addition, Nocalhost provides JetBrains and VSCode plug-ins for developers, and you can quickly get started in just 2 minutes.

In addition, Nocalhost provides Server Dashboard for enterprises to help enterprises systematically manage Kubernetes applications and developers, as well as various development and testing environments.

New technology is the driving force for the booming development of the industry, and open source is the fertile soil for nurturing new technologies. At present, Tencent has independently open sourced more than 130 projects on GitHub, with a cumulative Star count of more than 370,000. It is one of the technology companies with the largest open source contribution in the world. Nocalhost is one of Tencent's open source projects. Since its open source on December 19, 2020, the code has been fully hosted on GitHub. The accumulated GitHub Star has reached 900+. On January 21, 2021, it was selected as CNCF Landscape. In the future, Nocalhost will continue to uphold Tencent's open source spirit and the product philosophy of "returning development to the original and simple", continue to polish its products, firmly embrace the open source ecology, and continue to contribute to simplifying the difficulty of cloud native development and accelerating the popularization of cloud native.

Nocalhost is one of the few open source projects in the cloud native ecosystem based on the developer's perspective. In the cloud native wave, the developer's experience, efficiency and productivity tools deserve the attention of the entire industry. We expect that while cloud native will bring huge improvements in application architecture, service operation and maintenance, and elastic costs, it will also make it easier for developers to develop and debug cloud applications.
—— Wang Zhenwei, Director of R&D, Tencent Cloud CODING

The landing of modern efficiency tools has gradually shifted from a "top-down" management model to a "bottom-up" value-driven development. Developer experience is a long-next area. I believe that while Nocalhost brings a more convenient development experience to developers, it will also set off a wave of "bottom-up" driven by product value.
