Local Setup

We will need some tools, you may have some of them installed already. Please install missing.

Docker

We definitely need docker. Please install if missing.

Kind

We need a kubernetes cluster. If you have one, you are good to go. If you don't have, please install kind so we can have a test environment for you to play with. You can use another tool like minikube but the workshop setup is tested and supported for kind only.

Kubectl

Kubectl is a command-line tool to manage kubernetes. If you have it installed, skip this step, otherwise please proceed with the official documentation.

Helm

Helm is a "package manager" for kubernetes, used by many kubernetes-based systems. To install it, please follow the official documentation
