+        Small, straightforward enhancements can be proposed in regular GitHub issues using the template below. As a rule of thumb, the enhancement should be resolvable in a single PR that is at most size L. Anything more involved requires a mini (in-repo) enhancement proposal, and features with implications for kubectl require a full [KEP](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements).

+
+## Modules
+
+[semantically versioned]: https://semver.org
+[Go modules]: https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules
+
+The [Go modules] in the kustomize repository are [semantically versioned].
+
+
+### `kustomize`
+
+> _Depends on [`api`], [`cmd/config`], [`kyaml`]_
+
+The [`kustomize` module] contains the `main.go` for `kustomize`, buildable with
+
+```
+(cd kustomize; go install .)
+```
+
+[appears in kubectl]: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/master/staging/src/k8s.io/kubectl/pkg/cmd/kustomize/kustomize.go
+
+Below this are packages containing
+[cobra](http://github.com/spf13/cobra) commands implementing `build`,
+`edit`, `fix`, etc., packages linked together by `main.go`.
+
+These command packages are intentionally public, semantically
+versioned, and can be used in other programs.  Specifically, the
+`kustomize build` command [appears in kubectl] as `kubectl kustomize`.
+
+The code in the `build` package is dominated by flag validation,
+with minimal business logic.  The critical lines are something
+like
+
+```
+# Make a kustomizer.
+k := krusty.MakeKustomizer(
+  HonorKustomizeFlags(krusty.MakeDefaultOptions()),
+)
+
+# Run the kustomizer, sending location of kustomization.yaml
+m := k.Run(fSys, "/path/to/dir")
+
+# Write the result as YAML.
+writer.Write(m.AsYaml())
+```
+
+The `krusty` package is in the [`api`] module.
+
+### `api`
+
+> _Depends on [`kyaml`] and code generated from builtin plugin modules_
+
+The [`api` module] is used by CLI programs like `kustomize` and `kubectl`
+to read and honor `kustomization.yaml` files and all that implies.
+
+The main public packages in the [`api` module] are
+
+ | package   |             |
+ | --------: | :---------- |
+ | `filters` | Implementations of [`kyaml/kio.Filter`] used by kustomize to transform Kubernetes objects. |
+ |  `konfig` | Configuration methods and constants in the kustomize API. |
+ |  `krusty` | Primary API entry point.  Holds the kustomizer and hundreds of tests for it. |
+ |  `loader` | Loads kustomization files and the files they refer to, enforcing security rules. |
+ |  `resmap` | The primary internal data structure over which the kustomizer and filters work. |
+ |   `types` | The `Kustomization` object and ancillary structs. |
+
+### `cmd/config`
+
+> _Depends on [`kyaml`]_
+
+This module contains cobra commands and kyaml-based functionality to
+provide unix-like file manipulation commands to kustomize like `grep`
+and `tree`.  These commands may be included in any program that
+manipulates k8s YAML (e.g. kustomize).
+
+### `kyaml`
+
+> _Has no in-repo dependence_
+
+The [`kyaml` module] is a kubernetes-focussed enhancement of [go-yaml].
+
+The YAML manipulation performed by a kustomize is based on these libraries.
+
+These libraries evolve independently of kustomize, and other programs depend on them.
+
+The key public packages in the [`kyaml` module] include
+
+ | package   |             |
+ | --------: | :---------- |
+ | `errors` | Wrapper for the go-errors/errors lib |
+ | `filesys` | A kustomize-specific file system abstraction, to ease writing tests |
+ | `fn/framework` | An SDK for writing KRM Functions in Go |
+ | `fn/runtime` | Implements the runtime for KRM Function extensions |
+ | `kio` | Libraries for reading and writing collections of Kubernetes resources as RNodes |
+ | `openapi` | Loads and accesses openapi schemas for schema-aware resource manipultaion |
+ | `resid` | Representations to aid in unique identification of Kubernetes resources |
+ | `yaml` | A Kubernetes-focused wrapper of [go-yaml], notably including the RNode object |
+
+
+-------
+
+## How _kustomize build_ works
+
+The command `kustomize build` accepts a single string argument,
+which must resolve to a directory, possibly in a git repository,
+called the _kustomization root_.
+
+This directory must contain a file called `kustomization.yaml`, with
+YAML that marshals into a single instance of a `Kustomization` object.
+
+For the remainder of this document, the word _kustomization_ refers to
+either of these things.
+
+This kustomization is the access point to a directed, acyclic graph of
+Kubernetes objects, including other kustomizations, to include in a
+build.
+
+Execution of `build` starts and ends in the [`api`] module,
+frequently dipping into the [`kyaml`] module for lower level
+YAML manipulation.
+
+### The `build` flow
+
+  - Validate command lines arguments and flags.
+
+  - Make a `Kustomizer` as a function of those arguments.
+
+  - Call `Run` on the kustomizer, passing it the path to the
+    kustomization.
+
+    `Run` returns an instance of `ResMap`, the `api` package's
+    representation of a set of kubernetes `Resource` objects.
+
+    This structure offers resource lookup methods (map behavior),
+    but also retains the resources in the order they were
+    specified in kustomization files (list behavior).
+
+    Post-run, the objects are fully hydrated, per the
+    instructions in the kustomization.
+
+  - Marshal the objects as YAML to a file or `stdout`.
+
+
+### The `Run` function
+
+  - Create various objects
+
+    - A `ResMap` factory.
+
+      Makes  `ResMaps` from byte streams, other `ResMaps`, etc.
+
+    - A file `loader.Loader`.
+
+      It's fed an appropriate set of restrictions, and the path to the kustomization.
+
+    - A plugin loader.
+
+      It finds plugins (transformers, generators or validators)
+      and prepares them for running.
+
+    - A `KustTarget` encapsulating all of the above.
+
+      A KustTarget contains one `Kustomization` and represents
+	  everything that kustomization can reach.  This will include
+	  other `KustTarget` instances, each having a smaller purview than
+	  the one referencing it.
+
+  - Call `KustTarget.Load` to load its kustomization.
+
+    This step deals with deprecations and field changes.
+
+  - Load [openapi] data specified by the kustomization.
+
+    This is needed to recognize k8s kinds and their special
+    properties, e.g. which kinds are cluster-scoped, which kinds
+    refer to others, etc.
+
+  - Call `KustTarget.makeCustomizedResmap` to create the `ResMap` result.
+
+    This visits everything referenced by the kustomization,
+    performing all generation, transformation and validation.
+
+  - Finish the `Run` with
+
+    - Optional reordering of objects in `ResMap`, overriding the
+      FIFO rule.
+
+    - Optional addition of _kustomize build annotations_ to the
+      resources.  E.g. from which repo and file the resource was
+      read, the fact that kustomize touched the resource, etc.
+      These kustomize-specific annotations are intended for
+      server-side data analytics, file structure traceability and
+      reconstruction, etc.
+
+### The `makeCustomizedResmap` function
+
+  This function starts the process of object transformation,
+  as well as accumulation of recursively referenced data.
+
+  - Call `ra := KustTarget.AccumulateTarget`.
+
+    The result, `ra`, is a resource accumulator that contains
+    everything referred to by the current kustomization, now fully
+    hydrated.
+
+  - Uniquify names of generated objects by appending content hashes.
+
+    This cannot be done until the objects are complete.
+
+  - Fix all name references (given that names may have changed).
+
+    E.g. if a ConfigMaps was given a generated name, all objects that
+    refer to that ConfigMap must be given its name.
+
+  - Resolve vars, replacing them with whatever they refer to (a legacy feature).
+
+### The `AccumulateTarget` function
+
+  - Call `AccumulateResources` over the `resources` field (this can recurse).
+  - Call `AccumulateComponents` over the `components` field (this can recurse),
+  - Load legacy (pre-plugin) global kustomize configuration,
+  - Load legacy (pre-openapi) _Custom Resource Definition_ data.
+  - In the context of the data loaded above, run the kustomization's
+    - generators,
+    - transformers,
+    - and validators.
+  - Accumulate `vars` (make note of them for later replacement).
+
+### `AccumulateResources` and component accumulation
+
+  - If the path is a file:
+    - Accumulate the objects in the file (treating them
+      as opaque kubernetes objects).
+
+  - If the path is a directory:
+    - Create a new `KustTarget` referring to that directory's kustomization.
+	- Call `subRa := KustTarget.AccumulateTarget`.
+    - Call `ra.MergeAccumulator(subRa)`
+	This completes a recursion.
+
+  - If the path is a git URL:
+    - Clone the repository to a temporary directory.
+    - Process the path optionally specified in the URL
+      as a path in the clone.
+	- If no path specified, work from the repository root.
+
+
+That's as deep as this discussion will go.
+
+The deeper this document goes into the details, the faster
+it will get out of date.

+Welcome to Kubernetes. We are excited about the prospect of you joining our [community](https://github.com/kubernetes/community)! The Kubernetes community abides by the [CNCF Code of Conduct]. Here is an excerpt:
 
 _As contributors and maintainers of this project, and in the interest of fostering an open and welcoming community, we pledge to respect all people who contribute through reporting issues, posting feature requests, updating documentation, submitting pull requests or patches, and other activities._
 
 ## Getting Started
 
-Dev guides:
+### Forking Kustomize and Working Locally
+The Kustomize project uses a "Fork and Pull" workflow that is standard to GitHub. In git terms, your personal fork is referred to as the "origin" and the actual project's git repository is called "upstream". To keep your personal branch (origin) up to date with the project (upstream), it must be configured within your local working copy.
 
-- [Mac](docs/macDevGuide.md)
+### Create a fork in GitHub
+1. Visit https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize
+2. Click the `Fork` button on the top right
 
-We have full documentation on how to get started contributing here:
+### Clone the repository
+```bash
+# Clone your repository fork from the previous step
+git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:<your github username>/kustomize.git
+cd kustomize
 
-- [Contributor License Agreement](https://git.k8s.io/community/CLA.md) Kubernetes projects require that you sign a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) before we can accept your pull requests
-- [Kubernetes Contributor Guide](http://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/guide) - Main contributor documentation, or you can just jump directly to the [contributing section](http://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/guide#contributing)
-- [Contributor Cheat Sheet](https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/guide/contributor-cheatsheet/README.md) - Common resources for existing developers
+# Configure upstream
+git remote add upstream https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize
+git remote set-url --push upstream no_push
+
+# Review git configuration
+git remote -v
+```
+
+### Create a working branch
+```bash
+# Fetch changes from upstream master
+cd kustomize
+git fetch upstream
+git checkout master
+git rebase upstream/master
+
+# Create your working branch
+git checkout -b myfeature
+```
+
+### Sync your working branch
+You will need to periodically fetch changes from the `upstream` repository to keep your working branch in sync.
+```bash
+cd kustomize
+git fetch upstream
+git checkout myfeature
+git rebase upstream/master
+```
+
+### Push to GitHub
+When your changes are ready for review, push your working branch to your fork on GitHub.
+```bash
+cd kustomize
+git push origin myfeature
+```
+
+### Pull Request Rules
+
+We are using [Conventional Commits v1.0.0](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/) as the main guideline of making PR. This guideline serves to help contributor and maintainer to classify their changes, thus providing better insight on type of release will be covered on each Kustomize release cycle.
+
+1. Please add these keywords on your PR titles accordingly
+
+| Keyword  | Description | Example |
+| ------------- | ------------- | ------------- |
+| fix  | Patching or fixing bugs or improvements introduction from previous release. This type of change will mark a `PATCH` release.  | fix: fix null value when generating yaml |
+| feat  | New features. This change will mark a `MINOR` release. | feat: new transformer and generator for ACME API CRD. |
+| chore  | Minor improvement outside main code base  | chore: add exclusion for transformer test. |
+| ci | CI/CD related changes (e.g. github workflow, scripts, CI steps). | ci: remove blocking tests |
+| docs  | Changes related to documentation. | docs: add rules documentation for PR. |
+
+
+2. Add `BREAKING CHANGE:` on your commit message as footer to signify breaking changes. This will help maintainers identify `MAJOR` releases.
+  
+Example:
+
+```
+feat: change YAML parser from `yaml/v1` to `yaml/v2`
+
+BREAKING CHANGE: parse() function now works with 2 arguments.
+```
+
+### Create a Pull Request
+
+1. Visit your fork at `https://github.com/<user>/kustomize`
+2. Click the **Compare & Pull Request** button next to your `myfeature` branch.
+3. Check out the pull request [process](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/guide/pull-requests.md) for more details and advice.
+
+If you ran `git push` in the previous step, GitHub will return a useful link to create a Pull Request.
+
+### Build Kustomize
+The [Kustomize Architecture] document describes the respository organization and the kustomize build process.
+```bash
+# For go version >= 1.13
+unset GOPATH
+unset GO111MODULES
+
+# Build kustomize binary and install in go bin path
+cd kustomize
+make kustomize
+
+# Run unit tests
+make test-unit-all
+
+# Run linter
+make lint
+
+# Test examples against HEAD
+make test-examples-kustomize-against-HEAD
+
+# Run your development version
+~/go/bin/kustomize version
+```
+
+### General resources for contributors
+
+- [Contributor License Agreement] - Kubernetes projects require that you sign a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) before we can accept your pull requests.
+- [Kubernetes Contributor Guide] - Main contributor documentation.
+- [Contributor Cheat Sheet] - Common resources for existing developers.
+
+Here are some additional ideas to help you get started with Kustomize:
+- Attend a Kustomize Bug Scrub. Check the [SIG-CLI] meetings list to find the next one.
+- Help triage issues by confirming validity and applying the appropriate `kind` label (e.g. comment `/kind bug`).
+- Pick up an issue to fix. Issues with the `help-wanted` label are a good place to start, but you can also look for any issue with the `triage/accepted` label and no assignee. Remember to `/assign` yourself to let others know you're working on it.
+- Help confirm new issues labelled `kind/bug` by reproducing them with the latest release.
+- Support Kustomize users by responding to questions on issues labelled `kind/support` or in the [Slack channel].
 
 ## Mentorship
 
 - [Mentoring Initiatives](https://git.k8s.io/community/mentoring) - We have a diverse set of mentorship programs available that are always looking for volunteers!
 
+## Contributor Ladder
+
+Kustomize follows the [Kubernetes Community Membership] contributor ladder. Roles are as follows:
+
+1. Contributor: Anyone who actively contributes code, issues or reviews to the project. All contributors must sign the [Contributor License Agreement].
+1. Reviewer: Contributors with a history of review and authorship on Kustomize. Has LGTM rights on the Kustomize repo (as do all kubernetes-sigs org members). Active contributors are encouraged to join the reviewers list to be automatically pinged on PRs.
+1. Approver: Highly experienced active reviewer and contributor to Kustomize. Has both LTGM and approval rights on the Kustomize repo, as well as "maintain" [Github permissions].
+1. Owner: Approver who sets technical direction and makes or approves design decisions for the project. Has LGTM and approval rights on the Kustomize repo as well as "admin" [Github permissions].
+
+The kyaml module within the Kustomize repo has additional owners following the same ladder.
+
+For the kustomize project, we have defined some specific guidelines on each step of the ladder:
+
+To reach reviewer status, you must:
+- Have been actively involved in kustomize for 3+ months
+- Review at least 8 PRs that have been driven through to completion (see the reviewer guide below)
+- Author at least 5 PRs that have been approved and merged
+- Be a member of the kubernetes-sigs org. This should not be a blocker though, as once you meet the requirements for reviewer here,
+the existing kustomize maintainers will be happy to sponsor your request to join the kubernetes-sigs org.
+- Once you have met the above requirements, you may submit a PR adding yourself to the kustomize reviewers list, with links to your
+contributions in the description.
+
+To reach approver status, you must:
+- Meet all the requirements of a reviewer
+- Have been actively involved in kustomize for 6+ months
+- Review at least 15 PRs that have been driven through to completion (see the reviewer guide below)
+- Authored PRs meeting *either* of the following requirements:
+  - 15 PRs that have been approved and merged
+  - *OR* 10 PRs that have been approved and merged where some were more difficult, required greater thought/design,
+or built up to larger features/long-term goals.
+- File 3 issues. This can be any number of things, including but not limited to:
+  - Bugs with kustomize usage that you've found
+  - CI or release improvements
+  - Creating subtasks of a larger feature or project that you are in charge of.
+  - Long term improvements for the health of the project
+- Triage at least 10 untriaged issues, including at least 1 feature request. The kustomize bug scrub is a great place to get practice with doing this, but you can
+also follow the triage guide below to get started on your own.
+- Demonstrate deeper understanding of kustomize goals. This can take many forms and is a bit subjective, but here are a few examples:
+  - saying no to an eschewed feature, instead recommending an alternative solution that is more aligned with the declarative configuration model
+  - active participation in discussion on a feature request issue
+  - filing an issue describing a long term problem and solution aligned with kustomize goals, for example: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/issues/5140
+  - writing up KEPs for features that will improve the kustomize workflow while being aligned with kustomize goals, for example: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/pull/4558
+- Regularly interact with the existing kustomize maintainers, with clear communication about what you are working on or planning to work on. The kustomize
+maintainers should know who you are and be familiar with your contributions.
+- If you meet *most* of the above requirements while going above and beyond in a few areas, we will still consider your request to become an approver even
+if you are missing one or two of the requirements. Please contact the maintainers directly to ask about getting approver status if you fall into this category.
+- Otherwise, once you meet all the above requirements, you may:
+  - request to be added to the kustomize maintainer meeting that occurs each week with the kustomize PMs.
+  - submit a PR adding yourself to the kustomize approvers list, with links to your contributions in the description.
+
+To reach owner status, you must:
+- Meet all the requirements of an approver
+- Have been actively involved with kustomize for 1+ year
+- Assisted the current owner in driving the roadmap. This can be explicit or implicit help, such as:
+  - Editing the roadmap directly
+  - Reviewing the roadmap
+  - Providing suggestions for issues or prioritization in meetings that indirectly influence the roadmap
+- Regularly triage issues and attend the kustomize bug scrub
+- Regularly review PRs (1-2 a week)
+- Periodically lead the kustomize bug scrub
+- Periodically release kustomize (ensuring that there are no release blockers and that release notes are clean)
+- Be the primary owner or point of contact for a particular project or area of code
+- Ideally, there should be 2-3 owners at a time. Reach out to the current owners if you are interested in ownership. These
+requirements are not strict and evaluation is somewhat subjective.
+
+## Reviewer guide
+Please watch this talk on how to review code from Tim Hockin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZVv7-o8i40
+
+For reviewing PRs in kustomize, we have some specific guidelines:
+- If the PR is introducing a new feature:
+  - *It must be implementing an issue that has already been triage/accepted or
+a KEP that has been approved.* If it is not, then request the PR author to first file an issue.
+  - The PR must include thorough tests for the new feature, including unit and integration tests
+  - The code must be clean and readable, with thought given to how we will maintain the code in the future
+  - If the feature requires being broken up into multiple PRs to ease review, the feature should not be exposed to users
+    until the feature is completed in the last PR. For example, while we were building `kustomize localize`, we
+    built the feature almost entirely under the `api` module as a library with all the needed tests. There was no way
+    for users to invoke the localize code until the last PR that actually exposed the `kustomize localize` command in the
+    kustomize binary. This allowed us to continue development of `kustomize localize` without blocking kustomize releases.
+    If this type of development is not possible, then new features requiring multiple PRs should be
+    developed in their own feature branch.
+- If the PR is introducing a bug fix:
+  - If the PR is not fixing an issue that has already been triage/accepted, follow the triage guide below on bug
+    fixes to decide if this is a PR we want to accept.
+  - The PR should have two distinct commits:
+    - The first commit should add a test demonstrating incorrect behavior
+    - The second commit should include the bug fix
+    - Some sample PRs:
+      - https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/pull/5263/commits
+      - https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/pull/3931/commits
+    - The regression test is absolutely required, and we cannot accept bug fixes without tests.
+- If the PR is introducing a performance improvement:
+  - The PR description should give an indication of how much the performance is being improved and how we
+    can measure it - benchmark tests are fantastic.
+- Other PRs (documentation, CI improvements, etc.) should be reviewed based on your best judgment.
+
+## Triage guide
+The possible triage labels are listed here: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/labels?q=triage.
+
+Triaging a feature request means:
+- Understand what the user is asking for, and their use case.
+- Verify that it is not an [eschewed feature](https://kubectl.docs.kubernetes.io/faq/kustomize/eschewedfeatures/#build-time-side-effects-from-cli-args-or-env-variables)
+- Verify that it is not a duplicate issue.
+- Look into workarounds. Is there another way that the user can achieve their use case with existing features?
+- If you are new to this role, prior to leaving a comment on the issue, please bring it to weekly standup
+for group discussion to make sure that we are all on the same page.
+- Once you feel ready, you can label it with a triage label. Here's an [example](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/issues/5049). You can also
+look at other feature request issues to see how they were triaged and resolved. There are a few different triage labels that you can use, you can see the
+full list [here](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/labels?q=triage).
+
+Triaging a bug means:
+- First, verify that you can reproduce the issue. If you cannot reproduce the issue or need more information to give
+it a go, triage it accordingly.
+- Try to understand if this is really a bug or if this is intended behavior from kustomize. If it seems like intended
+behavior, do your best to explain to the user why this is the case.
+- If it seems to be a genuine bug, you can /triage accept the issue. In addition, investigate if there are workarounds or
+alternative solutions for the user that they can try until the issue gets resolved.
+
+The triage party for kustomize is here https://cli.triage.k8s.io/s/kustomize and can be a easy way to
+find issues that have not been triaged yet.
+
+## Project/Product Managers
+
+Kustomize will have opportunities to join in a project/product manager role. You can reach out to
+the existing kustomize maintainers if you are interested in this type of role. Project management work
+can greatly help supplement your contributions as you climb from reviewer to approver
+to owner.
+
+Expectations for this role are:
+
+- Triage 1 feature request each week, and bring it to weekly stand-up for discussion. Feature
+requests are issues labeled kind/feature, and you can find them [here](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+kind+feature+label%3Akind%2Ffeature).
+Please view the above triage guide for details on how to approach feature request triage.
+- Monitor the kustomize Slack channel and try to help users if you can. It is a pretty
+active channel, so responding to 4-5 users per week is sufficient even if some
+questions go unanswered. If there is an interesting topic or a recurring problem that many
+users are having, please bring it up in weekly stand-up.
+- Keeping track of a queue of backlog issues or PRs that are not being actively looked at in any existing project board.
+- Organizing or reorganizing project tracking boards when it makes sense.
+
+You will also be asked to help with roadmap planning, deprecation communication, prioritization,
+and doing research on kustomize usage when appropriate, though these responsibilities will occur less
+frequently.
+
+## Administrative notes:
+
+- The [OWNERS file spec] is a useful resources in making changes.
+- Maintainers and admins must be added to the appropriate lists in both [Kustomize OWNERS_ALIASES] and [SIG-CLI Teams]. If this isn't done, the individual in question will lack either PR approval rights (Kustomize list) or the appropriate Github repository permissions (community list).

-### Begin kustomize plugin rules.

-# complicated because
-#
-# - Every builtin plugin is a Go plugin -
-#   meaning it gets its own module directory
-#   (outside of the api module) with Go
-#   code in a 'main' package per Go plugin rules.
-# - kustomize locates plugins using the
-#   'apiVersion' and 'kind' fields from the
-#   plugin config file.
-# - k8s wants CamelCase in 'kind' fields.
-# - The module name (the last name in the path)
-#   must be the lowercased 'kind' of the
-#   plugin because Go and related tools
-#   demand lowercase in import paths, but
-#   allow CamelCase in file names.
-# - the generated code must live in the api
-#   module (it's linked into the api).
-
-# Where all generated builtin plugin code should go.

+### Kustomize plugin rules.
+#
+# The rules to deal with builtin plugins are a bit
+# complicated because
+#
+# - Every builtin plugin is a Go plugin -
+#   meaning it gets its own module directory
+#   (outside of the api module) with Go
+#   code in a 'main' package per Go plugin rules.
+# - kustomize locates plugins using the
+#   'apiVersion' and 'kind' fields from the
+#   plugin config file.
+# - k8s wants CamelCase in 'kind' fields.
+# - The module name (the last name in the path)
+#   must be the lowercased 'kind' of the
+#   plugin because Go and related tools
+#   demand lowercase in import paths, but
+#   allow CamelCase in file names.
+# - the generated code must live in the api
+#   module (it's linked into the api).
+
+# Where all generated builtin plugin code should go.
+pGen=api/internal/builtins
+# Where the builtin Go plugin modules live.

 ## kubectl integration
 
-Since [v1.14][kubectl announcement] the kustomize build system has been included in kubectl.
+To find the kustomize version embedded in recent versions of kubectl, run `kubectl version`:
 
-| kubectl version | kustomize version |
-|---------|--------|
-| v1.16.0 | [v2.0.3](/../../tree/v2.0.3) |
-| v1.15.x | [v2.0.3](/../../tree/v2.0.3) |
-| v1.14.x | [v2.0.3](/../../tree/v2.0.3) |
+```sh
+> kubectl version --client
+Client Version: v1.31.0
+Kustomize Version: v5.4.2
+```
 
-For examples and guides for using the kubectl integration please see the [kubectl book] or the [kubernetes documentation].
+The kustomize build flow at [v2.0.3] was added
+to [kubectl v1.14][kubectl announcement].  The kustomize
+flow in kubectl remained frozen at v2.0.3 until kubectl v1.21,
+which [updated it to v4.0.5][kust-in-kubectl update]. It will
+be updated on a regular basis going forward, and such updates
+will be reflected in the Kubernetes release notes.
+
+| Kubectl version | Kustomize version |
+| --------------- | ----------------- |
+| < v1.14         | n/a               |
+| v1.14-v1.20     | v2.0.3            |

+# Kustomize roadmap 2023-2024
+
+This document describes the items that we hope to make progress on over the next
+1 year (H2 2023 and H1 2024). Take this roadmap as more of what we hope to achieve
+rather than what we promise to achieve, as some items in this doc are highly dependent
+on the success that we have on-ramping new contributors to the project, and other
+items will depend on external contributions, which can vary.
+
+If you are interested in contributing to a particular area, you can look through
+the project board for that area and assign yourself to one of the issues. It is
+recommended to start with smaller issues to ramp up on the project before starting
+to tackle larger issues.
+
+Project boards:
+https://github.com/orgs/kubernetes-sigs/projects/50
+https://github.com/orgs/kubernetes-sigs/projects/51

+
+kustomize contributors: @varshaprasad96
+
+
+# H2 2023
+
+## Goal: Create kustomize leadership and contributor playbooks
+
+Contributors: natasha41575, annasong20
+
+Priority: High
+
+Effort: Medium
+
+In the past, when the leads stopped contributing (for various reasons, not covered here)
+in various kubernetes projects, it left a wide hole that few could easily fill,
+leaving the remaining leads in a bad position and the project understaffed. We should assume
+that we will need to onboard new maintainers in the future, and should have playbooks
+for doing so. As we grow the contributor base in kustomize, we will build these playbooks for
+those who are contributing and those who are looking to grow into kustomize leaders.
+To ensure the long term health and stability of the project, we should have:
+
+- On-boarding guides for new contributors
+- Clear guidelines for how to climb the kustomize ladder from contributor to approver to owner
+- A plan (maybe a schedule) for future kustomize cohorts
+- A succession plan, in case the current kustomize leads ever decide to step down
+
+## Goal: Onboard 2-5 new contributors to kustomize
+
+Contributors: natasha41575, annasong20, koba1t
+
+Priority: High
+
+Effort: High
+
+In order to make progress on kustomize goals in the future, we need to increase the
+level of staffing on kustomize. We should leverage community contributions to keep kustomize
+healthy and making progress.
+
+The primary means in which we will try to find new kustomize contributors is through the new kustomize
+maintainer training cohort. We will lead a group of ~20 kubernetes community members through a 3-6 month
+training program, involving talk sessions, bug scrubs, issue triage, PR reviews, and coding projects for
+each member.
+
+See [our call for help](https://groups.google.com/a/kubernetes.io/g/dev/c/M5OphEVsv5o/m/zc6G4H15AAAJ) for more
+specific details about the program.
+
+The effort from existing kustomize maintainers here will be to:
+- Organize the cohort, so that each cohort member feels productive and understands what they should work on
+- Align motivation of the cohort members with the work that we assign to them.
+- Review PRs from cohort members in a timely manner.
+- Be the point(s) of contact for questions/escalations
+- Lead weekly stand-ups and monthly bug scrubs
+
+At the end of all this, if we have a small team of contributors to kustomize, who understand its founding
+philosophy and intentions, we should be able to keep the project up to date.
+
+## Goal: Improve kustomize extensibility through KRM functions and CRD support
+
+Contributors: koba1t, varshaprasad96, external contributors
+
+Priority: High
+
+Effort: High
+
+Project board: https://github.com/orgs/kubernetes-sigs/projects/53/views/1
+
+For a long time, we have supported KRM functions as the proper way to implement custom generators and transformers.
+However, due to limited staffing, we have been unable to drive this feature out of alpha in kustomize. The two
+main features which we hope to make progress on are Composition and Catalog, two long-standing proposals for which
+numerous users have been waiting for a long time. There are several open issues
+regarding KRM functions where our long-term answer has been these two features, but users have been hearing about them
+for over a year without seeing any progress. If we can implement them, they will vastly improve usability and security
+of KRM functions.
+
+One item that falls under this category that does not currently have a contributor is improving CRD support.
+Currently, it is difficult to use CRDs properly, as there are three different fields (configurations, openapi, and crds)
+where users have to input their CRD configuration. We need to consolidate these fields into one easy to use feature to
+support CRDs. If you are interested in putting together a design proposal for how to tackle this task, please reach
+out to the kustomize maintainers.
+
+# H1 2024
+
+## Goal: Improve the kustomize documentation
+
+Contributors: annasong20, external contributions
+
+Priority: High
+
+Effort: High
+
+Project board: https://github.com/orgs/kubernetes-sigs/projects/50
+
+The kustomize documentation is currently fragmented, out of date, and lacks examples to fully understand its value.
+We have had a "docs project" for a long time; we need to prioritize implementing it so that the documentation is in
+one place, easy to find, and helps new users get started more easily. Some outcomes from this project should be:
+
+- A single, unified website hosted on kustomize.io
+- Updated information architecture, and a plan to keep it up to date
+- End to end examples of using kustomize, including complex use cases
+
+## Goal: Fix core usability bugs in kustomize
+
+Contributors: external contributions
+
+Priority: High
+
+Effort: High
+
+Project board: https://github.com/orgs/kubernetes-sigs/projects/51
+
+There are several core usability issues that block some users from adopting kustomize features or in
+some base block users from using kustomize entirely. These issues range from small bugs with workable but
+inconvenient workarounds, to enormous feature gaps.
+
+As part of this goal, we should work toward reducing the number of such issues that we have, making
+kustomize work more smoothly and predictably, and be usable for a larger range of users.
+
+There are a lot of important issues in this project, but the biggest and highest priority one is that
+kustomize doesn't currently support metadata.GenerateName. Unfortunately, we don't currently have anyone
+actively working on this issue, we would need an external contributor to reach out to the kustomize
+maintainers to pick it up.
+
+## Goal: Improve kustomize CI, release, & security patch processes
+
+Contributors: external contributions
+
+Priority: Medium
+
+Effort: High
+
+Project board: https://github.com/orgs/kubernetes-sigs/projects/54
+
+The kustomize release process is currently done on-demand and is strictly linear. This means that if we find a CVE,
+we are forced to release the next version of kustomize ASAP, and we are required to release every PR that has merged
+since the last release. This can put us in a sticky situation if we have a breaking change that we are
+not ready to release yet, but we need a patch quickly.
+
+We should try to improve the kustomize release process so that we can release frequently, reliably, and with some
+flexibility. The outcome of this effort should be:
+
+- kustomize is released on a regular cadence (biweekly or monthly)
+- kustomize is able to separate patch and feature releases, so that we can fix CVEs without needing to release
+everything that we have in flight
+- We can detect and fix CVEs early
+
+## Goal: Take long-standing alpha commands out of alpha
+
+Contributors: external contributions
+
+Priority: Medium
+
+Effort: Medium
+
+Project board: https://github.com/orgs/kubernetes-sigs/projects/52
+
+There are several commands in kustomize that have been alpha for a long time, including the cfg command group and
+localize. Moving them forward can indicate good health of a project and these commands are useful to many users.
+Some of these projects can be good starter issues for new contributors to have an easier onramp while others will
+require more effort and thought.
