🪦 DISCONTINUED Further Lokomotive development has been discontinued. Lokomotive is a 100% open-source, easy to use and secure Kubernetes distribution from the volks at Kinvolk

⚠️ End of project ⚠️

This project has ended, and further Lokomotive development has halted.

As it is free software, people are free and welcome to fork and develop the codebase on their own. However, to avoid any confusion, the original repository is archived and we recommend any further fork/development to proceed with an explicit rename and rebranding first.

We encourage all interested parties to mirror any relevant bits as we can't actively guarantee their existence in the future.
