The Pain of Raw kubectl apply
Why hand-managing dozens of YAML files breaks down at scale.
One App, Many Files
A single Kubernetes app rarely fits in one file. You often need a Deployment, a Service, a ConfigMap, and more, each in its own YAML.
Applying Them by Hand
With raw Kubernetes you run kubectl apply on each manifest. Three files means three commands to remember and run in order.
kubectl apply -f deployment.yaml
kubectl apply -f service.yaml
kubectl apply -f configmap.yamlAll lessons in this course
