As an alternative, all the examples in this and the following sections also work with minikube, a tool that lets you run a K8s cluster on your local machine (check out https://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/minikube/).

Before diving into the deployment tasks, we need to clarify some of the concepts and nomenclature that Kubernetes uses. A cluster...
