  KubeEdge is a CNCF graduated project that extends Kubernetes to edge
  computing. It provides infrastructure support for networking, application
  deployment, and metadata synchronization between cloud and edge. KubeEdge
  enables containerized application orchestration at the edge with offline
  autonomy, ensuring edge nodes continue functioning when disconnected from
  the cloud.

    description: >-
      KubeEdge extends the Kubernetes API to manage edge nodes and devices.
      It includes custom resources for device management, edge application
      deployment, and node grouping. The EdgeController and DeviceController
      synchronize metadata between the cloud and edge components, enabling
      Kubernetes-native management of edge workloads and IoT devices.
