This week I had the opportunity to start writing a new Kubernetes Controller, at Coralogix most of the services are Rust based. So I decided to give a try to rust and kube-rs, since I’m not a rustician, that would be a great opportunity to learning

Writing a simple controller took me some time to be honest. Even with Cursor auto completion it wasn’t that easy, docs are not clear about how kube-rs works

Rust isn't very expressive and you need to type a lot more than golang. Error handling was killing me haha

I won’t lie for a moment o was thinking about about and just go with old and good golang + kubebuilder

how’d it go

kube-rs is very straightforward, but you need to write a lot of things by yourself, at least this is my experience while working on this during a week.
