PixelTilt is a browser-based image editor. It is designed as demo project for Tilt and is comprised of several microservices deployed via Kubernetes.
The Tiltfile contains comments and links to relevant
documentation.
If you don't already have Tilt installed, follow the Tilt install guide.
ℹ️ The install guide also covers the prerequisites: Docker,
kubectl, and a local Kubernetes development cluster
Once you're ready, clone this repo and run tilt up from the main pixeltilt directory.
After some time, the resources should all become ready. If a resource fails, click on it to navigate to the logs and
investigate. Once successful, try clicking the endpoint link for the frontend resource to start using the PixelTilt
app!
The glitch resource is configured to use live update.
Try editing filters/glitch/main.go to use one of the commented out formulas instead and see what happens:
![]()
The storage resource has a custom UIButton to make it easy to reset the application state.
When clicked, a curl command accesses a special endpoint on the microservice to flush the data:
![]()
