## What it is
Kubebox is a terminal and web console for Kubernetes, providing an interactive TUI dashboard for browsing clusters, viewing pod logs, and monitoring resource usage. It is written in JavaScript and runs via Node.js or as a standalone binary.

## Use cases
- monitor kubernetes pods from the terminal
- view pod logs in a tui dashboard
- browse kubernetes cluster resources without kubectl
- watch container cpu and memory usage live
- manage openshift clusters from a console
- web-based kubernetes dashboard

## When to choose
- you want a lightweight terminal-based kubernetes dashboard
- you prefer a TUI over kubectl commands for cluster navigation
- you need quick log streaming and resource monitoring in one console

## When to avoid
- you need full cluster administration beyond monitoring and log viewing
- you require a rich graphical web dashboard like the official Kubernetes dashboard
- the project's maintenance-only status is a concern for long-term feature needs
