Tekton Dashboard gives you a visual, web-based interface for managing Tekton Pipelines. Instead of interacting with your build and deployment workflows purely through command-line tools, you get a browser window where you can view and manage PipelineRuns and TaskRuns, along with the resources involved in their creation and execution. You can also filter these runs by label. At a high level, it is a web UI that sits on top of Tekton Pipelines. You need Tekton Pipelines installed first to use it, and the project provides specific version pairings to ensure compatibility. Once installed, it connects to your environment and displays the status and details of your ongoing and completed tasks. It also includes helpful features like the ability to create GitHub secrets directly from the UI, which helps avoid authentication errors when your pipelines try to pull code from repositories. This tool is for teams already using Tekton for continuous integration and delivery who want an easier way to monitor and control their workflows. For example, a developer running automated tests on new code can open the dashboard to see if a PipelineRun succeeded or failed, inspect the logs of a specific TaskRun, or check the resources consumed. It is particularly useful for people who prefer a visual overview over memorizing command-line queries. The project is built to run in Kubernetes environments and offers installation paths for different setups, including standard Kubernetes clusters, OpenShift, and local development tools like Minishift. It supports secure access through TLS and network ingress configurations. The README doesn't go into detail on the underlying technology stack, but it notes that development builds use npm for the web content and standard container tooling for pushing updates.
