Kubernetes Quick Install	2017-09-07T20:10:05-07:00	true

This is a quick guide to help you get started running Kubernetes on your laptop (or on the cloud).

(This isn't meant as a production Kuberenetes guide; it's merely intended to give you something quickly so you can try Fission on it.)

Minikube

Minikube is the simplest way to run Kubernetes on your laptop.

Install and start Kubernetes on OSX:

$ curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/$(curl -s https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/stable.txt)/bin/darwin/amd64/kubectl && chmod +x kubectl && sudo mv kubectl /usr/local/bin

$ curl -Lo minikube https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/v0.16.0/minikube-darwin-amd64 && chmod +x minikube && sudo mv minikube /usr/local/bin/

$ minikube start

Or, install and start Kubernetes on Linux:

$ curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/$(curl -s https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/stable.txt)/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl && chmod +x kubectl && sudo mv kubectl /usr/local/bin

$ curl -Lo minikube https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/v0.16.0/minikube-linux-amd64 && chmod +x minikube && sudo mv minikube /usr/local/bin/

$ minikube start

Google Container Engine

You can use Google Container Engine's free trial to get a 3-node cluster. Hop over to Google Cloud to set that up.
