Knative Client

This section outlines best practices for the Knative developer experience. It is a reference for Knative CLI implementation, and a reference for Knative client libraries.

The goals of the Knative Client are to:

1. Follow the Knative serving and eventing APIs
2. Be scriptable to allow users to create different Knative workflows
3. Expose useful Golang packages to allow integration into other programs or CLIs or plugins
4. Use consistent verbs, nouns, and flags for various commands
5. Be easily extended via a plugin mechanism (similar to kubectl) to allow for experimentation and customization
