A Kubernetes preview environment is an isolated environment that allows developers to test their code at any time without worrying about how others may be affected.

Imagine you're part of a team developing a complex API, and you've been tasked with adding a new endpoint that relies on features within the codebase currently being optimized by one of your team members. Although your team has a development environment with seeded databases and dev versions of dependencies, you run into issues when team members want to test their optimizations at the same time as you.
