k3s on Raspberry Pi: Introduction

Background

I’m taking a few days to play with Kubernetes. Since I have a stack of Raspberry Pi 2s otherwise doing nothing, I decided to use them. I started with Scott Hanselman’s How to Build a Kubernetes Cluster with ARM Raspberry Pi then run .NET Core on OpenFaas blog post.

I’m not going to bother with the .NET Core / OpenFaas stuff yet, but here’s how I got on.
