<p>A Kubernetes cluster can be deployed on either physical or virtual machines. To get started with Kubernetes development, you can use <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube">Minikube</a>. Minikube is a lightweight Kubernetes implementation that creates a VM on your local machine and deploys a simple cluster containing only one node. Minikube is available for Linux, Mac OS and Windows systems. The Minikube CLI provides basic bootstrapping operations for working with your cluster, including start, stop, status, and delete. For this bootcamp, however, you'll use a provided online terminal with Minikube pre-installed.</p>
