Install local tools

This guide assumes you've got three nodes avaiable, they could be VMs, raspberry pis, Intel NUCs.. whatever works. Also, that you're following from a mac.

You will need some basic tools before we get anything setup, easier to install now and get out of the way. As we go through the setup and management you will need each of these.

brew install k0sproject/tap/k0sctl

and

brew install helm kubectl krew git cilium-cli

helm: package manager for Kubernetes

k0sctl: cluster management tool

kubectl: kubernetes cli tool

krew: kubectl plugin manager

cilium-cli: Cilium CNI cli toolbox
