Use the sections below to get started deploying Cloud Foundry apps
to GKE using Kf.
Get started with a quickstart
Use the quickstart to install Kf and deploy a
simple test Cloud Foundry app. This introduces you to the basic steps you'd
perform for most app deployments.

For an introduction to the value of Kf, as well as high-level
overviews of the technology, see the following topics.
Learn about migrating an existing Cloud Foundry Foundation to Kf
Kf provides tools that you can use to perform a readiness assessment
of your existing Cloud Foundry Foundation in preparation for migration to Kf.
You can then migrate the Cloud Foundry Foundation, Organization, Space, or App to Kf.
