About kty
kty maps Kubernetes concepts to an SSH-based terminal dashboard. After installation in a cluster, users can connect with an SSH client to open shells in pods, view container logs, forward traffic, and transfer files with scp or sftp.
It uses GitHub or Google for identity verification and Kubernetes RBAC to check access. The project provides installation instructions and Helm charts for deploying it.
