Mirror Mirror on My local machine
summary
Demonstrates Mirrord as an open-source CLI and IDE plugin that runs a local process inside a Kubernetes context by launching an agent pod in the target namespace and routing network and filesystem calls back to the cluster. Shows a Python weather app change, Mirrord spawns the agent, “steals” traffic so the local code serves live requests, and the agent auto-terminates when done. Promises faster inner loops, lower cloud cost, and support for service meshes and VPNs.
