Designing an Experience that Developers Love!
summary
OpenShift ships a new developer perspective (introduced in 4.2) that targets end-to-end app flows and ships on a three‑month cadence (4.3 just released). The team builds a visual topology view with one‑click decorators (route, code, build logs), integrates Che/CodeReady workspaces for in‑IDE editing, Tekton pipelines and KNative services, and uses the service binding operator to auto‑create credentials. Work succeeds in speeding common tasks, though pipeline visualization hits scalability limits and some advanced ops remain behind “advanced options.”
