About kubecolor
kubecolor sits in front of kubectl and colorizes its output, so resource tables, descriptions and YAML are easier to scan in the terminal. You use it the same way as kubectl, and many people alias kubectl to it.
Colors come from themes, and a configuration file lets you adjust them. It is written in Go and suits anyone who spends a lot of time reading kubectl output.
Strengths
- Makes kubectl output much easier to scan
- Used as a drop-in in front of kubectl

Limitations
- Only changes how output looks and adds no Kubernetes features
