using the docs (found via websearch) at

minikube start

we find out that its just the naming for “local kubernetes”

brew install minikube && minikube start

...

🏄  Done! kubectl is now configured to use "minikube" cluster and "default" namespace by default

Okay, how do we actually launch a container?

lets just stay in the get started doc and use the classic hello-world container instead of the suggested welp tobi, the hello-world doesnt have a webserver ^^ so just stick to the suggestions for now:

kubectl create deployment hello-minikube --image=kicbase/echo-server:1.0
kubectl expose deployment hello-minikube --type=NodePort --port=8080

minikube service hello-minikube is interesting, as it opens a tunnel on a temp port, gotta play around with this in another scenario

→ we can still do classic portmapping:

kubectl port-forward service/hello-minikube 1337:8080

Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:1337 -> 8080
Forwarding from [::1]:1337 -> 8080

Handling connection for 1337
