k3d - 基于容器的轻量级 Kubernetes 集群管理工具

k3s in docker

k3s is the lightweight Kubernetes distribution by Rancher: k3s-io/k3s

k3d creates containerized k3s clusters. This means, that you can spin up a multi-node k3s cluster on a single machine using docker.

Note: k3d is a community-driven project but it's not an official Rancher (SUSE) product. Sponsoring: To spend any significant amount of time improving k3d, we rely on sponsorships:

History

This repository is based on @zeerorg's zeerorg/k3s-in-docker, reimplemented in Go by @iwilltry42 in iwilltry42/k3d, which got adopted by Rancher in rancher/k3d and was now moved into its own GitHub organization at k3d-io/k3d.
