West Side CD: The Deployment Ballet Goes On
summary
Cartographer claims to replace centralized CI/CD orchestration with a Kubernetes-native choreography that wires reusable CRDs into supply chains; it provides workload CRD and delivery/supply chain blueprints that link Flux (git), kpack (buildpacks) + Tekton (tasks), Carvel’s ytt and kapp-controller, image registry and smoke-test operator. The project is ~8 months old, VMware-backed, runs on any conformant cluster or VMware Community Edition, and is demonstrated as working end-to-end: commits -> image build -> config generation -> deployment -> smoke test.
