# What is Okteto?

Ben Edelstein, the founder of LogRocket, interviewed me for their podcast, PodRocket. 

In this episode, I talked about why we started Okteto, our journey since the early days, remote development environments, and why I'm so passionate about developer tools and the Kubernetes ecosystem. 

I had a lot of fun talking to Ben, hope you like the episode!
