Description

kubefwd enables developers to access Kubernetes cluster services locally by forwarding all services in a namespace to unique loopback IPs, eliminating port conflicts and environment-specific configuration. It features an interactive TUI for real-time monitoring, automatic reconnection, pod log streaming, and a REST API for programmatic control. This tool simplifies local development by making cluster services accessible by their service names exactly as they appear in-cluster.
