    `docker-compose` is different from `docker compose` (with a space in between words).

    The former will be replaced by the latter in the long run.

    One of the goal of this new version is to be able to plug different backends like AWS ECS or Microsoft ACI. See https://github.com/docker/compose-cli. So you can docker compose and your stack is deployed on ECS instead of your local machine.

  • How to distribute workloads using Open Cluster Management
    3 projects | dev.to | 26 Jan 2024
    To get started, you'll need to install clusteradm and kubectl and start up three Kubernetes clusters. To simplify cluster administration, this article starts up three kind clusters with the following names and purposes:
  • 15 Options To Build A Kubernetes Playground (with Pros and Cons)
    4 projects | dev.to | 25 Jan 2024
    Kind: is a tool for running local Kubernetes clusters using Docker container "nodes." It was primarily designed for testing Kubernetes itself but can also be used for local development or continuous integration.
  • Exploring OpenShift with CRC
    2 projects | dev.to | 13 Jan 2024
    Fortunately, just as projects like kind and Minikube enable developers to spin up a local Kubernetes environment in no time, CRC, also known as OpenShift Local and a recursive acronym for "CRC - Runs Containers", offers developers a local OpenShift environment by means of a pre-configured VM similar to how Minikube works under the hood.
  • K3s Traefik Ingress - configured for your homelab!
    3 projects | dev.to | 15 Dec 2023
    I recently purchased a used Lenovo M900 Think Centre (i7 with 32GB RAM) from eBay to expand my mini-homelab, which was just a single Synology DS218+ plugged into my ISP's router (yuck!). Since I've been spending a big chunk of time at work playing around with Kubernetes, I figured that I'd put my skills to the test and run a k3s node on the new server. While I was familiar with k3s before starting this project, I'd never actually run it before, opting for tools like kind (and minikube before that) to run small test clusters for my local development work.

  • Hacking in kind (Kubernetes in Docker)
    2 projects | dev.to | 18 Nov 2023
    Kind allows you to run a Kubernetes cluster inside Docker. This is incredibly useful for developing Helm charts, Operators, or even just testing out different k8s features in a safe way.

  • K3s – Lightweight Kubernetes
    17 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 11 Oct 2023
    If you're just messing around, just use kind (https://kind.sigs.k8s.io) or minikube if you want VMs (https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io). Both work on ARM-based platforms.

    You can also use k3s; it's hella easy to get started with and it works great.

  • Two approaches to make your APIs more secure
    3 projects | dev.to | 29 Aug 2023
    We'll install APIClarity into a Kubernetes cluster to test our API documentation. We're using a Kind cluster for demonstration purposes. Of course, if you have another Kubernetes cluster up and running elsewhere, all steps also work there.
  • observing logs from Kubernetes pods without headaches
    2 projects | /r/kubernetes | 26 Aug 2023
    yes I know there is lens, but it does not allow me to see logs of multiple pods at same time and what is even more important it is not friendly for ephemeral clusters - in my case with help of kind I am recreating whole cluster each time from scratch

What are some alternatives?

When comparing compose-cli and kind you can also consider the following projects:

podman-desktop-companion - Podman desktop companion

minikube - Run Kubernetes locally

cri-dockerd - dockerd as a compliant Container Runtime Interface for Kubernetes

k3d - Little helper to run CNCF's k3s in Docker

Yacht - A web interface for managing docker containers with an emphasis on templating to provide 1 click deployments. Think of it like a decentralized app store for servers that anyone can make packages for.

lima - Linux virtual machines, with a focus on running containers

docker-ce - :warning: This repository is deprecated and will be archived (Docker CE itself is NOT deprecated) see the https://github.com/docker/docker-ce/blob/master/README.md :warning:

vcluster - vCluster - Create fully functional virtual Kubernetes clusters - Each vcluster runs inside a namespace of the underlying k8s cluster. It's cheaper than creating separate full-blown clusters and it offers better multi-tenancy and isolation than regular namespaces.

fargate - Deploy serverless containers to the cloud from your command line

colima - Container runtimes on macOS (and Linux) with minimal setup

ecsk - CLI tool that you can interactively call Amazon ECS APIs (run-task, execute-command, stop-task), copy files between ECS and local, and view logs.

nerdctl - contaiNERD CTL - Docker-compatible CLI for containerd, with support for Compose, Rootless, eStargz, OCIcrypt, IPFS, ...
