Hello! Our team from Lucidchart joined the SIG UI call this morning to talk about creating a standard library of shapes for creating Kubernetes diagrams. We've worked with AWS and GCP in the past, and we've built shape libraries of their icons so that people can create AWS and GCP diagrams (examples linked, and images included below).

Are there any existing icons used to create Kubernetes diagrams that we could aggregate into a shape library? We found some diagrams within the Kubernetes tutorials, with the assets available in your Github repo, but I'm not sure if those are the right icons to turn into a standard Kubenetes shape library.

If there aren't any good existing ones, is there anyone in this community who would like to work with us to create them?

Thanks,  
Anthony Morelli
Director of Product Management, Lucidchart (lucidchart.com)

Hey Anthony, here is a more complete shape library including example diagrams which should satisfy your requirements https://github.com/octo-technology/kubernetes-icons/blob/master/slidedeck/Kubernetes_Icons_PDF.pdf

I am in the middle of getting people together for productively working towards creating a graphing language which can be used for graphing different contexts of Kubernetes infrastructures, your partnership would be kindly appreciated at https://github.com/Roderick-Jonsson/k8s-diagrams

Hey lucid chart folks, what happened of this? I don't find a set of kubernetes chartt on the app.

Thanks for following up. We don’t have any Kubernetes shapes available right now, but they’re still on our backlog for consideration. We’ll be sure to reach out to this group if and when we have something ready for testing or broader use.

Thank you so much for sharing the example diagrams. I am one of the PMs at Lucid and I wonder if you would be interested in jumping on a 30 minutes call to chat. I would like to learn more about Kubernetes diagrams and build some more advanced features around it. Feel free to drop me an email if you are interested. aliao@lucidchart.
