We are super excited to announce General Availability of Bridge to Kubernetes.

Formerly known as Local Process with Kubernetes, Bridge to Kubernetes is an iterative development tool offered in Visual Studio and VS Code that allows developers to write, test and debug microservice code on their development workstations while consuming dependencies and inheriting existing configuration from a Kubernetes environment.

Simplifying Microservice Development

Microservice applications are comprised of many services, often calling each other. Each service has its own configuration and dependencies, making setting up and running the application locally time-consuming and complex.

By using Bridge to Kubernetes to connect your development workstation to your Kubernetes cluster, you eliminate the need to manually source, configure and compile external dependencies on your development workstation. Environment variables, connection strings and volumes from the cluster are inherited and available to your microservice code running locally.
