Kustomize

Kustomize is a tool used in software development, specifically for managing Kubernetes applications. It allows developers to customize and configure application settings without modifying the original code. Kustomize works by applying overlays—specific configurations that adjust settings for different environments, like development or production. This enables teams to reuse the same base configuration while tailoring the deployment to their needs. By keeping the configurations organized and separate, Kustomize makes it easier to maintain applications, ensuring consistency and reducing errors across various deployments.
