Intro: Telepresence
summary
Telepresence makes a laptop act like a Kubernetes node by swapping deployment for a proxy that forwards cluster requests to a local process, proxies TCP/DNS/env and mounts, and thus eliminates docker build/push from the inner loop to speed iteration. It boots a proxy pod (startup delay), requires kubeconfig access and a network connection, and has limited Windows support. Roadmap items: a Go-based client (tellapproxi) replacing SSH VPN, persistent proxy pods for fast reconnect, and header-based sidecar intercepts for multi‑user routing.
