Minikube Intro
summary
Local Kubernetes runtime that boots a VM, uses kubeadm to self‑host control plane components, and supports Docker, rkt and CRI‑O runtimes via the CRI. Started in 2016 and gathers ~300 contributors, provides DNS, nodePort access, a custom hostPath provisioner for persistent volumes, and host‑to‑VM mounts. Developers can reuse Docker daemon to avoid pushing images, change Kubernetes versions with a flag, and pass arbitrary component flags with --extra-config; upcoming work adds load balancer support via host iptables.
