A software engineering team is developing a containerized microservices application targeted for Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). The team uses the browser-based Cloud Shell Editor and wants to accelerate their development inner loop.
They have the following requirements:
Which workflow and configuration should the team implement in Cloud Shell Editor?
Execute gcloud builds submit on each code save and configure Cloud Profiler with Cloud Trace to capture execution stack traces from GKE workloads
Configure skaffold.yaml and a cloudcode.kubernetes launch configuration in launch.json, then run the Cloud Code: Debug on Kubernetes action with watch mode enabled
Use the Cloud Shell Terminal to execute skaffold dev, manually configure kubectl port-forward for language ports, and create a standard remote SSH launch configuration
Configure a continuous delivery pipeline in Google Cloud Deploy with Cloud Build triggers, and use Cloud Logging Logpoint injection to inspect remote execution

Cloud Code in Cloud Shell Editor is an integrated extension that brings Google Cloud developer workflows directly into the browser-based IDE. Leveraging Skaffold (skaffold debug), Cloud Code provides a streamlined, continuous development workflow designed specifically for containerized workloads deployed to Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), local minikube, or Cloud Run.
