Introduction

When you are developing applications that will ultimatly use kubernetes you ideally want your developement environment to be as close to your staging or production environments. Kind helps you create a local kubernetes cluster easely and in a repeatable way, it also helps you use your local environment to test some scenarios.

There are several different tools that can be used to create local kubernetes clusters, like minikube, k3s, docker desktop and many more. So why use Kind? Kind is a tool for running local Kubernetes clusters using Docker container “nodes”. this means we can run clusters multiple nodes on a local environment.
