About Freelens

Freelens is a Kubernetes IDE that provides a graphical interface for managing and monitoring Kubernetes clusters.

It simplifies cluster operations by offering:

• A dashboard with real-time cluster insights

• Support for multiple clusters

• Built-in terminal access to nodes and pods

• Visualization of workloads, networking, storage, and configurations

• Extension support to add custom functionality

Freelens is maintained by the community.

Note specific to Flatpak:

The application is sandboxed. It includes bundled kubectl and helm commands and uses ~/.kube/config file by default.

Flatpak adds wrapper for the aws, doctl, gke-gcloud-auth-plugin, glab and kubelogin tools and runs them as a commands from the host system.

The terminal uses /bin/sh by default, but it can be switched to, for example, /bin/bash for sandboxed environment or /app/bin/host-spawn for a host environment.

You can use flatpak-override to give access to the filesystem f.e. if you're missing .minikube certificates. flatpak override --user --filesystem=~/.minikube app.freelens.Freelens.

Release info Update on Oct 28, 2026
Release notes The major release that modernizes Freelens internals and unlocks further development.

v2.0.0 is a full internal rewrite of how Freelens is built, bundled, and tested. The application, its internal packages, and the extension API are now ESM-first, compiled by a single Vite (electron-vite) pipeline directly from TypeScript sources, and tested with Vitest. The UI runs on React 19, and the extension API has been redesigned as a specified, frozen contract, checked by porting real extensions to it. Most of the work is in the foundation, but the release also brings a standalone terminal, faster and more reliable cluster connections over HTTP/2, custom resources for users who may not list their definitions, verified binary downloads, and a long list of fixes. The extension API is not compatible with v1 extensions.

What's new:

Breaking Changes
• The extension API has been reorganized and is not compatible with Freelens v1 extensions. Extensions must be updated for v2 before they will load. Extensions may now be authored as either ESM or CommonJS, and must target React 19. See the migration guide. See #2102, #2110, #2304, #2465
• Extensions are now installed under the application data directory (/extensions) instead of ~/.freelens/extensions. Extensions installed for v1 are not migrated and have to be installed again in their v2 versions. See #2400, #2467
• Renderer extensions get no guarantee of Node or Electron, require() included; Node work belongs in the main process, reached over IPC. See #2483, #2484
• Freelens is now ESM-first throughout — the main process, the renderer, all internal modules, and the extension API ship as ES modules. See #2102, #1718
• macOS 13 Ventura or later is required: Electron 44 no longer supports macOS 12. See #2864
• Removed the hierarchical-namespaces (HNC) tree view from the namespace details, together with the deprecated @mui/lab it was built on. See #2290
• Downloaded kubectl versions start at Kubernetes 1.22, and the China package…
