Lightweight Kubernetes with k3s

k3s is a lightweight Kubernetes distribution developed by Rancher, designed for edge computing, IoT, and development environments.

Why Use k3s:

  • Single binary (~100MB)
  • Reduced dependencies (e.g., uses containerd instead of Docker)
  • Easy to install and manage

Quick Install:

curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | sh -

Join Agent Node:

K3S_URL=https://my-server:6443 \
K3S_TOKEN=SECRET \
curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | sh -

Great for CI pipelines, small clusters, and edge use cases.
