kubectx: Delete a named context.

kubectx

$ kubectx -d ${name}

try on your machine

This command is a combination of two separate commands: "kubectx" and "-d ${name}".

"kubectx" is a command-line tool used to switch between different Kubernetes contexts. A Kubernetes context defines a set of cluster resources that may include specific clusters, users, and namespaces. The "kubectx" command allows you to easily switch the current context you are working with.
"-d ${name}" is an option provided to the "kubectx" command. This option is used to delete a specific Kubernetes context. The "${name}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the context you want to delete. You would replace "${name}" with the name of the context you wish to remove.

So, when you run the command "kubectx -d ${name}", it will delete the Kubernetes context specified by the name provided after the "-d" option.
