k0s - CNCF Sandbox Distro Updates
summary
k0s packages Kubernetes into one single binary that’s statically compiled and runs on Alpine, Ubuntu, Red Hat or Windows with a single extra file; CRI implementations are swappable (CRI-O or containerd). Control plane is separated from workers so controller nodes do not run kubelet or containerd and worker nodes can reverse-tunnel to the control plane. Kosmodrome manages control planes as in-cluster pods and acts as Cluster API providers for declarative full‑stack management. Recent release shows 20 contributors and growing; sandbox with incubation application pending.
