## What it is
The official Kubernetes Examples repository, curated by SIG Apps, providing educational examples for deploying applications and workloads on Kubernetes. It covers categories like AI/ML, web applications, and databases, each with step-by-step deployment instructions and explanations of key Kubernetes concepts.

## Use cases
- learn how to deploy applications on kubernetes
- find example yaml manifests for kubernetes workloads
- run machine learning workloads on kubernetes
- deploy databases on kubernetes with best practices
- learn kubernetes deployment patterns and best practices
- get started with kubernetes through tutorials

## When to choose
- you want official, maintained, educational examples for running apps on Kubernetes
- you need reference manifests for AI/ML, web, or database workloads
- you are learning Kubernetes concepts through hands-on examples

## When to avoid
- you need production-ready, hardened deployment configurations
- you want a tool or library rather than example code and tutorials
- you need examples for a specific application not covered in the collection

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: documentation, developer-tools, container-orchestration, deployment
- domain: tutorials, cloud-computing, developer-tools
- platform: cloud, self-hosted
- tags: kubernetes-examples, sample-applications, yaml-manifests, sig-apps, educational, containers, devops, kubernetes, docker
