## Native Tools
### Kubectl
[`kubectl`](docs/user-guide/kubectl/) is the command line tool for Kubernetes. It controls the Kubernetes cluster manager.
### Dashboard
[Dashboard](docs/user-guide/ui/), the web-based user interface of Kubernetes, allows you to deploy containerized applications
to a Kubernetes cluster, troubleshoot them, and manage the cluster and its resources itself.
## Third-Party Tools
### Helm
[Kubernetes Helm](https://github.com/kubernetes/helm) is a tool for managing packages of pre-configured
Kubernetes resources, aka Kubernetes charts.
Use Helm to:
* Find and use popular software packaged as Kubernetes charts
* Share your own applications as Kubernetes charts
* Create reproducible builds of your Kubernetes applications
* Intelligently manage your Kubernetes manifest files
* Manage releases of Helm packages
### Kompose
