Grapes

grapes is a repository of mine that contains configuration and github actions to quickly deploy various flavors of Kubernetes.

L8s is my approach to install K8s using Docker containers. The approach is not new, nor are the tools I’m using. The thing I just did, was to create a way to quickly recreate such a cluster using existing tooling. The result: https://github.com/the-technat/dotfiles/tree/master/dot_omz-custom/plugins/l8s.
