Is this the right book for you?
This book aims to bridge the gap between Python development and Kubernetes operations, making it an ideal read for anyone in the software development lifecycle seeking to adopt Kubernetes for Python applications. This includes python developers, beginners to Kubernetes, students and educators.Whom is this book NOT for?
If you already know Kubernetes and are using it in some capacity, then you might not find any value in this book. Also, if you don't have much of a technical background(don't know how to work with Python, no idea about containers), then this book won't be a good fit for you.

About me
I'm a full stack developer with more than 2 decades of experience working with enterprise customers. I've been dabbling with Kubernetes since 2018, when there were comparitively lesser resources to tame the Kubernetes beast. I always wanted to read a book to bridge the knowledge gap for a developer who knows a bit of ops and wants to dip their toes in the Kubernetes waters and figured I'll write one for those who are on the same boat.

Is the book ideal only for Python developers?
IThe book has been written using a Python Flask application as an example. It is quite easy to fit in your Node.js/Java/PHP/Rails/Golang/Rust stack if you understand the concepts explained in the book.
