Local Development

Local development leverages K3D to create a local Kubernetes cluster.

Kubectl and FluxCLI are used to bootstrap the cluster.

The built-in Traefik ingress controller is used to proxy the application endpoints.

URL endpoints:

• Portfolio
  • Python Backend
  • Golang Backend
• Wedding Gallery

Requirements

• ASDF-VM
• Docker

Usage

Run make create to create the local Kubernetes cluster and bootstrap Flux.
