Tekton Dashboard is a web-based user interface designed to manage and visualize Tekton Pipelines and Tekton Triggers resources within Kubernetes environments. Written primarily in JavaScript, the dashboard provides a general-purpose tool for viewing and managing the creation, execution, and completion of Tekton resources across containerized workflows and orchestration platforms.
The dashboard offers several core capabilities for users working with Tekton resources. It provides real-time visibility into PipelineRun and TaskRun status and logs, allowing users to monitor pipeline execution as it happens. Users can filter resources by label to quickly locate specific items, view comprehensive resource overviews alongside raw YAML definitions, and choose between cluster-wide visibility or namespace-scoped resource management depending on their operational needs. The interface also supports importing resources directly from git repositories and includes an extension system that allows users to add custom functionality and support for additional resource types beyond the core Tekton offerings.
The project has been classified across multiple DevOps and cloud-native domains including pipeline visualization, workflow orchestration, CI/CD dashboards, GitOps, and developer experience tooling. This broad classification reflects the dashboard's role as a central interface for managing containerized workflows and continuous integration and delivery pipelines in cloud-native environments.
