* [k3s](https://k3s.io/) is a super-simple way to install a Kubernetes cluster on "_something as small as a Raspberry Pi_". I'm sure it's probably missing some of the bells-and-whistles of the more fully-featured installations, but I've never hit any limitations that mattered to me. You can see the setup in the [pi-tools](https://github.com/scubbo/pi-tools/tree/main/scripts-on-pi)[^out-of-date-naming] repo that I use to configure my homeserver. Configuration and installation is [just these two lines](https://github.com/scubbo/pi-tools/blob/main/scripts-on-pi/controller_setup/1.sh#L67-L70), though there are another 70 or so lines of installing convenience resources (which I should really migrate to a full GitOps location, but eh, who has the time?) * [k3s](https://k3s.io/) is a super-simple way to install a Kubernetes cluster on "_something as small as a Raspberry Pi_".

* I have really enjoyed what tinkering I've done with [cdk8s](https://cdk8s.io/) for Infrastructure-As-Code, but haven't used it in earnest yet.

[^out-of-date-naming]: the naming is somewhat out-of-date, since I've added a non-Pi PowerEdge to the cluster - but hey, all engineers know there's nothing to permanent as a temporary name!
