Kubernetes on Docker Desktop
• Install Docker Desktop
• Enable Kubernetes from docker-desktop setting
• Switch the Kubernetes context to docker-desktop
• Example :


❯ kubectl config get-contexts
CURRENT   NAME                      CLUSTER                   AUTHINFO                  NAMESPACE
          docker-desktop            docker-desktop            docker-desktop
*         kind-kube-nginx-cluster   kind-kube-nginx-cluster   kind-kube-nginx-cluster

❯ kubectl config use-context docker-desktop
Switched to context "docker-desktop".


• Instead of using the command kubectl config use-context docker-desktop we can also go with kubectx to switch between Kubernetes context
• To install kubectx on Mac: brew install kubectx
#devops #kubernetes #dockerdesktop
