Hey there. I didn’t submit this post but I am the author of the app. I didn’t know about Headlamp when I started working on Luxury Yacht. I only discovered it a few weeks ago. Headlamp is great, and of course having CNCF’s backing means a lot.
I’m not trying to sell Luxury Yacht. It’s free to use. I’m not going to try to convince anyone to choose it over Headlamp, or any other tool. Of course I’m flattered if people like what I built, but that’s the extent of my investment.
I like Luxury Yacht better than Headlamp, but of course I do, because I built it to work exactly the way I want it to.
Author of the app here. That’s one of the reasons I picked the name. When I was trying to come up with a name for this thing, I didn’t want another “k” name, but I did want something that tied in with the nautical theme of kubernetes. Luxury Yacht ticked that box and the Monty Python connection was a sweet bonus.
For those who don't know https://headlamp.dev already exists and is in CNCF.

How does this compare to LENS? https://lenshq.io/
Always used the free and paid version and never heard of headlamp. Having a look its basically the same but for free.
BTW it's pronounced 'Throatwobbler Mangrove'

Interesting “built with these tools” to “useful in this way” ratio
This could be an vscode extension. No need for an full fledge desktop app.
You could say that about almost anything. There are plenty of people who dont use VSCode so it seems wise to make it a separate app.
