Skaffold supports the following tools for rendering applications:

Skaffold’s render configuration is set through the manifests section of the skaffold.yaml. See each renderer’s page for more information on how to configure them for use in Skaffold. It’s also possible to use a combination of multiple renderers in a single project.

For a detailed discussion on Skaffold configuration, see Skaffold Concepts and skaffold.yaml References.
