## What it is
Monday is a Go-based CLI tool that gives microservice developers a unified YAML-configured environment for running local applications with hot reload. It can also port-forward remote services from Kubernetes (via pod labels), SSH, or TCP so developers don't have to run every dependency locally.

## Use cases
- run multiple local microservices with one command instead of ten terminals
- port-forward a Kubernetes service to my local machine for development
- forward remote services over SSH or TCP locally while developing
- hot reload my Go or NodeJS app when files change locally
- standardize microservice dev setup across a team with shared YAML config
- auto-reconnect lost port-forward connections during development
- run some services locally and reach others in a remote cluster

## When to choose
- your team develops microservices against a shared Kubernetes environment and wants consistent local setups
- you want to mix locally-run apps with port-forwarded remote dependencies
- you need hot reload plus multi-service orchestration in a single CLI

## When to avoid
- you don't use Kubernetes or SSH-accessible remote environments
- you need full local orchestration via containers (use docker-compose or Tilt instead)
- you want a GUI-based development environment
