Launchpad – Zero DevOps Kubernetes
Hey everyone, We recently open-sourced the deployment framework we use at Jetpack to deploy our web sites and services to Kubernetes, and we wanted to share it with the community! Our goal was to simplify the developer workflow for deploying to Kubernetes, and to reduce the time needed to onboard new developers. With Launchpad, our developers can provision their access with a single login, and start deploying to Kubernetes with just `launchpad up`. We also wrote a blog post describing why we built launchpad, and the benefits we've seen here:…
Launchpad – Zero DevOps Kubernetes launched on November 17, 2022 with 20 votes, #1,151 of 3,471 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 3 years on.
In plain words
Launchpad is an open-source deployment framework for Kubernetes that simplifies developer workflows. Built by Jetpack and designed for development teams, it enables developers to provision access with a single login and deploy applications using a simple `launchpad up` command. The tool aims to reduce deployment complexity and accelerate onboarding for new developers working with Kubernetes infrastructure.

Talanoa▲341Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

I made a thing! In 2014, I was holding a stack of iPhones and thought to myself: "Hey, if I had each phone display a playing card, I could click a button and they'd shuffle themselves" I pared that idea all the way down to this: trading cards made of e-ink displays. Right now, each card costs me about $20 each, but with only a bit more scale, I think I can get that down to $10. In doing this project, I learned how to design electronics and circuit boards. I learned Rust and wrote my first driver, I upped my CAD skills, 3D printed, and did my first resin casting. I generated the images on the…
