I would love to see equivalent for Docker Toolkit, Docker for Mac, and Docker for Windows. It would make it easier to convince my team. I'll check out Minikube.

But yes, I know it is not an easy problem. I had looked at the automation involved as well as deployed Kubernetes by hand to AWS, having to translate what works on AWS.

And as I have mentioned in my comment, GKE is an option.

Having said that, on the desktop, I think all I really care about would be the equivalent of a docker-machine setup for Mac and Windows. Something that brings up a single-node CoreOS running stable, with networking working, and kubelet running via Docker. (Back in 2015, I had to rely on kubelet being baked into the CoreOS release). Probably not a big deal on Mac if I put a vagrant script, or use the existing ones that CoreOS has. But my teammates that are using Windows will want something that works well.

I'm curious -- what's the underlying distro being used for minikube?




Fantastic! I'll check it out, thanks!

Take a gander at https://www.openshift.org/vm/ ? Kubernetes based.


Minikube is effectively what you're asking for, and it's actually based on docker-machine.

The underlying distro is the same as what's used in boot2docker, but they want to provide support for CoreOS as well.
