First App experience for existing Kubernetes resources is confusing #7341

Open willdavsmith opened 6 months ago

willdavsmith commented 6 months ago

Overview of feature request

rad init (creates an application. environment, and resource group)
kubectl apply -f my-manifest.yaml (also creates an application, environment, and resource group)

If a user does both of these, it's not immediately clear which application, environment, resource group, or Kubernetes namespace the application resources exist in.

Acceptance criteria

We may want to consider simplifying this flow - like using the default application on kubernetes yaml deployments or similar.

Additional context

The rad app list command with no parameters lists the applications in the default group. This is not clear to new users. It appears that the apps in the default group are the only apps on the k8s cluster.

The tutorial to add radius to an existing k8s app should be updated. https://docs.radapp.io/tutorials/add-radius/

In step 5 before you run rad app graph -a demo -g default-demo the user should run rad group list.
This will make it more apparent where the value for the -g parameter comes from.
