Using Minikube (Kubernetes) for Node.js Development

on YouTube ↗26m

" summary

Local development uses minikube single-node VM to run real Kubernetes commands against Docker images stored on the VM, with kubectl creating deployments, services and an nginx ingress to route multiple microservices through one endpoint. Demo shows rolling updates and replica scaling to five replicas, autoscale 2→5 at 50% CPU via the HorizontalPodAutoscaler, plus liveness/readiness probes and the dashboard for logs. Notes limitations: no cloud load‑balancer IP and older Kubernetes version, but the workflow works.
