Headlamp is an easy-to-use and extensible Kubernetes web UI.
Headlamp was created to blend the traditional feature set of other web UIs/dashboards (i.e., to list and view resources) with added functionality.
- Vendor-independent / generic Kubernetes UI
- Works in-cluster, or locally as a desktop app
- Multi-cluster
- Extensible through plugins
- UI controls reflecting user roles (no deletion/update if not allowed)
- Clean & modern UI
- Cancellable creation/update/deletion operations
- Logs, exec, and resource editor with documentation
- Read-write / interactive (actions based on permissions)

If you want to deploy Headlamp in your cluster, check out the instructions on running it in-cluster.
If you have a kubeconfig already, you can quickly try Headlamp locally as a desktop application for Linux, Mac, or Windows. Make sure you have a kubeconfig file set up with your favorite clusters and in the default path so Headlamp can use it.
Headlamp uses RBAC for checking users' access to resources. If you try Headlamp with a token that has very limited permissions, you may not be able to view your cluster resources correctly.
See the documentation on how to easily get a Service Account token for your cluster.
We maintain a list of the Kubernetes platforms we have tested Headlamp with. We invite you to add any missing platforms you have tested, or comment if there are any regressions in the existing ones.
If you are interested in tweaking Headlamp to fit your use-cases, you can check out our plugin development guide.
Check out our guidelines, including our Code of Conduct, and join the discussion on the #headlamp channel in the Kubernetes Slack.
If you are interested in the direction of the project, we maintain a Roadmap. It has the biggest changes planned so far, as well as a board tracking each release.
Headlamp is released under the terms of the Apache 2.0 license.
