What is claude-code-devops?

This repository is named claude-code-devops, but its README describes a different project called Kube-News, a simple news portal built with Node.js meant as a teaching example for containers and Kubernetes rather than a production product. It lets users list news articles on a home page, create new articles through a form, view individual articles in detail, and insert articles in bulk through a REST API. The backend uses Node.js with the Express framework, rendering pages with EJS templates on the front end, and storing data in PostgreSQL through the Sequelize object relational mapper. It also integrates with Prometheus, a monitoring system, to collect metrics about the running application. What makes this project distinct is a set of endpoints built specifically for testing how an application behaves under failure, useful when running inside Kubernetes. Alongside normal health check endpoints that report whether the app is running and ready to receive traffic, there are two endpoints meant to simulate problems on purpose: one that forces the app into an unhealthy state so every following request returns a server error, and another that makes the app temporarily report as not ready for a chosen number of seconds. These are meant to help someone test how liveness and readiness checks, retry logic, circuit breakers, and failover behave when things go wrong, rather than only testing the happy path. The data model is intentionally simple: a single Post record with a title, a short summary, longer content, and a publish date, each with a defined character limit. To run it locally, someone needs Node.js and PostgreSQL installed, with Docker and Kubernetes as optional extras for running it the way it was originally intended to demonstrate. After cloning the repository, installing dependencies inside the src folder, and setting a handful of environment variables for the database connection, the app starts and becomes available in a browser. A separate file is included to help populate the database with example news articles for testing.
