Note: This release comes with a new config version, v2beta23. To upgrade your skaffold.yaml, use skaffold fix. If you choose not to upgrade, skaffold will auto-upgrade as best as it can.

Highlights:

• Skaffold now supports a brand new deploy type - docker, enabling iterative application development without Kubernetes by creating containers directly in the local Docker daemon!
  • This is an experimental alpha feature - we expect to find issues as it is put through the paces. Please be patient as we work to refine the experience, and be sure to report any issues or improvement ideas!
• The Skaffold HTTP/gRPC APIs are now disabled by default for dev and run, and the --enable-rpc flag is now deprecated. The APIs will now only be activated if the --rpc-port or --rpc-http-port flags are set, and will only bind to the provided ports (rather than defaulting to 50051 or 50052). Please see the documentation for more details.
