✨ What is Cluster API Operator?
The Cluster API Operator is a Kubernetes Operator designed to empower cluster administrators to handle the lifecycle of Cluster API providers within a management cluster using a declarative approach. It aims to improve user experience in deploying and managing Cluster API, making it easier to handle day-to-day tasks and automate workflows with GitOps.
This operator leverages a declarative API and extends the capabilities of the clusterctl CLI, allowing greater flexibility and configuration options for cluster administrators.
