# :warning: DEPRECATION NOTICE :warning:
Thank you to everyone who has used and contributed to Cloud Foundry for Kubernetes! The project has proved out the Cloud Foundry model on Kubernetes.

As a follow-on to the [8/23/21 cf-dev CF on K8s Update](https://lists.cloudfoundry.org/g/cf-dev/message/9371), this project has been deprecated to focus efforts on [Korifi](https://github.com/cloudfoundry/korifi/). Korifi provides a Kubernetes-native app platform by reimplementing the core Cloud Foundry APIs and backing them by a set of Kubernetes custom resources and controllers. We invite you to try out Korifi and provide feedback!

# cf push comes to Kubernetes

Cloud Foundry For Kubernetes (cf-for-k8s) blends the popular CF developer API with Kubernetes, Istio, and other open source technologies. The project aims to improve developer productivity for organizations using Kubernetes. cf-for-k8s can be installed atop any conformant environment in minutes.

Cloud Foundry is an open-source cloud platform as a service (PaaS) on which developers can build, deploy, run and scale applications. For more information on what Cloud Foundry is and how it can help developers build cloud native applications and platform operators to manage those apps at scale, please visit [cloudfoundry.org](https://cloudfoundry.org) and [docs.cloudfoundry.org](https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/)

## Getting Started
If you're new to Kubernetes, we recommend this [Getting Started Guide](https://cf-for-k8s.io/docs/), which walks you though deploying cf-for-k8s on your machine using a local [kind](https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/) (Kubernetes In Docker) cluster.  The guide configures your cf-for-k8s deployment as a developer-edition that runs on your laptop and can handle approximately 10 small applications.  

For more generic and flexible instructions, see [Deploying CF for K8s](https://cf-for-k8s.io/docs/deploying/).
