We are excited to announce the submission of CEL Playground for consideration as a sandbox project for the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) by the team from Getup Cloud. CEL Playground is an interactive WebAssembly (Wasm) powered environment designed to explore and experiment with the Common Expression Language (CEL), offering a simple and user-friendly interface to write and evaluate CEL expressions for use in Kubernetes, Istio, and other Cloud Native technologies. 

CEL Playground provides a space where Cloud Native developers can learn, develop, and test Common Expression Language (CEL) expressions directly in their browsers. Currently, CEL Playground is hosted by Getup Cloud as a community service and is available here for all to use: https://playcel.undistro.io/ .

CEL Playground is used for testing Kubernetes APIs, such as the ValidatingAdmissionPolicy, and can help users easily test expressions. The playground also includes a set of examples and the Kubernetes libraries for CEL. CEL Playground is already referenced and linked to within the Kubernetes technical documentation and has been used in presentations at the past few KubeCons, and elsewhere, to illustrate the use of CEL with Kubernetes. 

CEL has been adopted by initiatives such as the Google Cloud Certificate Authority Service, Envoy, and Istio, highlighting the importance of CEL Playground in developing and testing CEL expressions across various projects and communities. 

CEL Playground represents a great example of cross-community collaboration between the CEL Community and multiple CNCF Project communities, and we highly encourage you to try it for yourself and give us feedback. 

Why CNCF Sandbox?

Bringing CEL Playground to the CNCF’s ecosystem offers numerous benefits for accelerating CEL adoption across multiple CNCF projects. The CNCF sandbox provides CEL Playground a great platform for collaboration, enhancing contributions, and fostering wider CEL adoption.

Benefit to the Cloud Native Developers:

The addition of CEL Playground to the CNCF landscape promises several key benefits. Firstly, it expands the toolkit available to CNCF projects, facilitating the accelerated adoption and effective utilization of the Common Expression Language (CEL). As well, by providing a space where developers can learn and test Common Expression Language (CEL) expressions directly in their browsers, CEL Playground addresses a need among Cloud Native developers for a reliable tool for crafting, testing, deploying, and swiftly evaluating CEL expressions. Its intuitive interface and robust functionality enable developers to navigate the complexities of CEL with ease, empowering them to optimize performance, scalability, and compatibility across diverse Cloud Native technologies.
