Is there an architecture diagram that shows what runs where?
Tilt replaces `docker build && kubectl apply` or `docker-compose`. It watches your files, updates automatically, and gives you a UI that shows you error so you don't have to spelunk with kubectl.
It uses minikube or docker-for-desktop or a cloud k8s cluster (AKS, EKS, GKE, whatever).
It's like skaffold or draft or garden.
Does that help?
If you use skaffold for local dev, a Tiltfile will take 10 minutes to write. Email me at dan at windmill dot engineering and we can pair to get you going. You're the user who would benefit from Tilt immediately.
