What you should know

- Before we begin, let's review what you'll need to know and be able to do in order to complete this course. First, you'll need access to a computer running Windows, Linux, or macOS. Second, you'll need internet access and a terminal application where you can run simple Unix commands like make directory, mkdir, and change directory, cd. Next, you need to be able to describe container technology from a 10,000-foot view. Simply knowing a tiny bit about Docker or another container technology like Podman is more than enough, so if you want to quickly read the first paragraph of the Docker Wikipedia entry that will do. If you'd like a more in-depth overview of containers, you can find several courses on Docker and microservices in the LinkedIn Learning Library. Finally, you'll need a text editor like VS Code to view and edit the Kubernetes manifests we'll use in this course. There's no need to be a tech expert to work through this course, so if you've got a terminal app, a text editor, a high-level understanding of Docker, and the desire to learn more about Kubernetes, you're ready, so let's go.
