It took a while to wrap my head around this topic.

I really like this Idea. It simplifies the creation of an app which is a key feature.

So my current Idea is to have an additional Button on the main Dashboard view. Probably a drop down on the existing button.

This should directly open the app form. In the background it would still create a pipeline since it contains all the logic of Namespace creation with Secrets, Webhooks and so on. But it would be transparent to the user.

Thank you for your answer
But my opinion is that when the user creates a new pipline with the same name, a namespacec will be created for him, and when he goes to his pipline, he will see his own namespace and the same example you gave, and he can change or create it.

Changing the name of a namespace is not possible in Kubernetes. The namespace has to be destroyed and recreated. All data must be backedup and restored, which would be super risky. I dont think this is possible.

Another option is to have completly custom namespaces from the beginning. This might be a bigger but possible change, since I'm constructing the name on many cases by concatinating name+phase to geäuess tje namespace.

This option is also great. Let's say the user authenticates based on username > email. Then, put the name + phase.
