Hi @leecalcote I'm interest on working on it. Is there any specific documentation for this project and a small question that is it the same project as listed on GSoC projects?

Yes, it is.

Noted, I think I'll be the one getting it next year.

Hey hey, hello everybody! 👋

To set up kubectl-meshsync-snapshot as a Krew plugin, here’s what needs to be done:

1. Set up a GitHub Actions workflow to build binaries for multiple platforms when a release is published (f.e., as done in the main Meshery repo)

2. Prepare a pull request with a Krew manifest file containing links to latest build version and submit it to the Krew index: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/krew-index
   (Note: the manifest in this repo is only relevant for local development.)

Bonus step:

3. Configure krew-release-bot to automatically create a PR to the Krew index with the new plugin version on each release.

Put the previous comment as a separate github issue, as we have discussed: #46 (comment)

Can I work on this as a mentee of LFX mentorship ?
