  • microk8s

    MicroK8s is a small, fast, single-package Kubernetes for datacenters and the edge.

    If you want to have a working Kubnetes up in 5 minutes or less, try microk8s. Works great on arm64, armhf and x86.

  • k0s

    k0s - The Zero Friction Kubernetes

    K0s might work for you, if you want to just try Kubernetes.

  • okteto

    Develop your applications directly in your Kubernetes Cluster

    Maybe try a "Namespace as a Service". It's far from a full k8s experience, but might be a nice place to experiment with basic deployments/services/etc. Okteto has the best dev tier that I'm aware of - up to 10 pods, 5GB of memory, 3 namespaces. Enough room to do a bit of experimentation. If you are just wanting to learn Kubernetes from a developer side, this would be an excellent option.

  • TJs-Kubernetes-Service

    Enable enthusiasts and administrators alike to easily provision highly available and production-ready Kubernetes clusters on Proxmox VE.

    This is how I deploy K8s into my Proxmox homelab: https://github.com/zimmertr/TKS
