I was looking through the docs and noticed that while the technical details are great, we don't really have a high-level "beginner's guide" that explains the core concepts (like the evolution of service meshes, the "bouncing problem" with sidecars, and how Kmesh solves this with eBPF). I think adding something like this would make it a lot easier for newcomers to understand what Kmesh actually does differently.
Also, while I was reading up on the architecture, I noticed a couple of the diagrams (specifically the Istio perf analysis and the eBPF sockmap one) have Chinese text in them. It makes it a bit tough for English speakers to fully grasp what's going on in those images.
What I'd like to do:
- Add a new blog post/guide: "Kmesh: The Ultimate Guide to Service Mesh for Beginners" to break down these concepts simply.
- Replace those specific diagrams with English equivalents so they're accessible to everyone.
- Drop a quick link to the new guide in the README so people can actually find it.
I've already got a draft of the blog and the translated images ready to go. I'll open a PR for this shortly! Let me know if you have any feedback.
