- Describe pod: `kubectl describe pod <name>`
- Logs: `kubectl logs <pod>`
- Exec into pod: `kubectl exec -it <pod> -- /bin/bash`

### Deployments
- List deployments: `kubectl get deployments`
- Scale: `kubectl scale deployment <name> --replicas=3`
- Rollout status: `kubectl rollout status deployment/<name>`
- Rollback: `kubectl rollout undo deployment/<name>`

### Services
- List services: `kubectl get services`
- Expose: `kubectl expose deployment <name> --port=80 --target-port=8080`

### Context
