This may of course include your linux VM on your machine …k8s-tew is a single binary written in GO, with no external dependency, that will easily deploy a Kubernetes cluster over bare-metal (understand : no cloud provider required) even for a single node test-bench for your POCs.

The quickstart section of the documentation is all about single node setup, and it is pretty simple :# Switch to user rootsudo su -# Download Binarywget https://github.

But I would not recommend using k8s-tew in production because this project has only been maintained by one person so far (Darx Kies / https://github.
com/darxkies, many many thanks to him for providing this to the community) who started this project in June 2018.
This project really deserves to be supported by many more people.
