I think it would make more sense to do the opposite, generate Docker compose + files starting from a Kubernetes configuration. k8s features is a superset of Docker Compose, for instance networking, importing files, managing secrets is imho easier and superior in k8s. With docker-compose and Mesos often one has to find workarounds, change the topology, install additional pieces (e.g. service discovery) etc.

To be honest, I don't see a reason to use docker-compose anymore, because minikube gives the full Kubernetes experience locally. It might take a bit to learn k8s, but it's definitely worth it.

"docker-compose up" is perhaps still easier to start with, but as soon as you start working, rather than playing with demos, you hit limitations and want more.
