+## Assignment: get Kubernetes
+
+- In order to do the other assignments, we need a Kubernetes cluster
+
+- Here are some *free* options:
+
+  - Docker Desktop
+
+  - Minikube
+
+  - Online sandbox like Katacoda
+
+- You can also get a managed cluster (but this costs some money)
+
+---
+
+## Recommendation 1: Docker Desktop
+
+- If you are already using Docker Desktop, use it for Kubernetes
+
+- If you are running MacOS, [install Docker Desktop](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/install/)
+
+  - you will need a post-2010 Mac
+
+  - you will need macOS Sierra 10.12 or later
+
+- If you are running Windows 10, [install Docker Desktop](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/install/)
+
+  - you will need Windows 10 64 bits Pro, Enterprise, or Education
+
+  - virtualization needs to be enabled in your BIOS
+
+- Then [enable Kubernetes](https://blog.docker.com/2018/07/kubernetes-is-now-available-in-docker-desktop-stable-channel/) if it's not already on
+
+---
+
+## Recommendation 2: Minikube
+
+- In some scenarios, you can't use Docker Desktop:
+
+  - if you run Linux
+
+  - if you are running an unsupported version of Windows
+
+- You might also want to install Minikube for other reasons
+
+  (there are more tutorials and instructions out there for Minikube)
+
+- Minikube installation is a bit more complex
+
+  (depending on which hypervisor and OS you are using)
+
+---
+
+## Minikube installation details
+
+- Minikube typically runs in a local virtual machine
+
+- It supports multiple hypervisors:
+
+  - VirtualBox (Linux, Mac, Windows)
+
+  - HyperV (Windows)
+
+  - HyperKit, VMware (Mac)
+
+  - KVM (Linux)
+
+- Check the [documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-minikube/) for details relevant to your setup
+
+---
+
+## Recommendation 3: learning platform
+
+- Sometimes, you can't even install Minikube
+
+  (computer locked by IT policies; insufficient resources...)
+
+- In that case, you can use a platform like:
+
+  - Katacoda
+
+  - Play-with-Kubernetes
+
+---
+
+## Recommendation 4: hosted cluster
+
+- You can also get your own hosted cluster
+
+- This will cost a little bit of money
+
+  (unless you have free hosting credits)
+
+- Setup will vary depending on the provider, platform, etc.
+
+---
+
+class: assignment
+
+- Make sure that you have a Kubernetes cluster
+
+- You should be able to run `kubectl get nodes` and see a list of nodes
+
+- These nodes should be in `Ready` state
