When NOT to use kurtosis
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- If your project uses languages or frameworks not supported by Go and does not include Docker or Kubernetes in its tech stack
- When the requirements do not involve blockchain technology, as Kurtosis is narrowly focused on this domain
