- [Connector](connector.html): Binds a local workload to listeners in remote sites

A site is a central concept in Skupper, representing a location on the
network where part of your application is running. The Site resource
functions as the foundational building block for your network,
carrying all the necessary configuration for that specific
location. You can think of it as the starting point for setting up
your application network.

A link is a secure communication channel that joins two Skupper sites.
Links are the backbone of a Skupper network, providing connectivity
for distributed applications to communicate across geographical
boundaries and various platforms.
These are the main resources you typically work with. The other
resources are for less common situations.

- [AccessToken](access-token.html): A short-lived credential used to create a link
- [RouterAccess](router-access.html): Configuration for secure access to the site router

The AccessGrant and AccessToken resources provide short-lived tokens
for securely creating links.

The RouterAccess resource is for advanced scenarios where you need to
configure how the Skupper router is exposed.

## Service exposure resources

- [Listener](listener.html): Binds a local connection endpoint to connectors in remote sites
- [Connector](connector.html): Binds a local workload to listeners in remote sites
- [AttachedConnector](attached-connector.html): A connector in a peer namespace
- [AttachedConnectorBinding](attached-connector-binding.html): A binding to an attached connector in a peer namespace

The AttachedConnector and AttachedConnectorBinding resources allow you
to expose resources running in other namespaces on the same Kubernetes
cluster where your site is located.
