Welcome beautiful people,

I hope you have a great week. Over the past week, I spent lots of time learning about Mono-Repos and Kubernetes. Thus, this newsletter will focus on Kubernetes Resources 😊

**How** **this** **newsletter** **came** **about?**
I just changed industry; from the blockchain space to DevOps. Thus, I have LOTs and lots to learn. So I decided to make my learning public. Yes, you read correctly, you can see some of my weekly notes right [here](https://www.notion.so/researchandstudy/DevOps-Diary-2e5c82e48d374442858fc8295070a4b8).

Additionally, I provide a curated version of the resources that I come across in this weekly newsletter. So if you want to get started learning about DevOps and/or stay up-to-date with the resources out there, then you are definitely at the right place.
