Cluster-api: UI dashboard for visualizing cluster-api managed clusters
User Story
As a user of the cluster API, I would like to be able to see the managed clusters and some basic metrics about them in a friendly UI in order for me to get an easy visualization about my managed clusters.
Detailed Description
Similar to the approaches of most of the k8s cluster management solutions (e.g. Rancher / Gardener / .. etc.), I think having a friendly UI dashboard with the following is a great feature:
- Which clusters are managed by the cluster API / which provider
- Some basic metrics / gauges (similar to the Rancher Dashboard)
- The ability to perform some actions
/kind feature

The group may or may not have developers with the rights skills and interests, but this would be great for user experience one day.

Weave Scope is another possible starting-point - I don't know if anyone has done a ClusterAPI plugin for it yet, but maybe having the link here will encourage someone.

Super supportive of having efforts to provide user interfaces, and we should definitely follow-up with some documentation on how to use and setup such tools. In general, for this repository we don't think it falls under our current responsibilities.
Should we close this one out and follow-up with some PRs to the book when UI tools are ready to be used?

@vincepri I definitely agree that the responsibility of this repo would be to document the tools / reference how to integrate them in its book.
In the meantime, maybe it's fine to leave that issue here open until those PRs get merged / until the first tool emerges.
What do you think?

might be an issue in the octant/weave scope repositories can reach the right audience for carrying on this task...

@vincepri / @johnharris85 Is this the github issue vmware-tanzu/octant#600 tracking the cluster api plugin work for octant? Did the demo happen? I'd love to try it out if you need some beta testers.

@lyveng The demo hasn't happened yet, we're kind of stalled in this area, but it'd be great to circle back once we have more time / plan for the next cycle.
