go/v4 (go.kubebuilder.io/v4)

(Default Scaffold)

Kubebuilder will scaffold using the go/v4 plugin only if specified when initializing the project. This plugin is a composition of the kustomize.common.kubebuilder.io/v2 and base.go.kubebuilder.io/v4 plugins using the Bundle Plugin. It scaffolds a project template that helps in constructing sets of controllers.

By following the quickstart and creating any project, you will be using this plugin by default.
