@sftim might it be useful to include example objects? Pods, Deployments, ConfigMaps...so on?

There are a lot of "objects" in a cluster (a very generic software term)?

Hi @sftim .
I agree that this term should be added.

Note: The glossary categories selector lists "Core object" as: a resource type that Kubernetes supports by default.
