Kitematic vs Kustomize: What are the differences?

Kitematic: The easiest way to start using Docker on your Mac. Simple Docker App management for Mac OS X; Kustomize: Kubernetes native configuration management. It introduces a template-free way to customize application configuration that simplifies the use of off-the-shelf applications. Now, built into kubectl as apply -k.

Kitematic and Kustomize can be categorized as "Container" tools.

Some of the features offered by Kitematic are:

  • Mac App with GUI for Docker
  • Create images from any folder with a Dockerfile in it
  • Configure environment variables

On the other hand, Kustomize provides the following key features:

  • Purely declarative approach to configuration customization
  • Natively built into kubectl
  • Manage an arbitrary number of distinctly customized Kubernetes configurations
