The article doesn't mention k3d (https://k3d.io/ https://k3d.io/) which is a variant of k3s that runs in docker (rather than a VM) - very nice for k8s dev/test on developer workstations.
It integrates very nicely with https://tilt.dev/ https://tilt.dev/ also (another very useful tool for k8s related dev/test).
- rckrd 5y agoAuthor here. Tilt is great. After minikube I wrote skaffold, which is a closer alternative to docker compose for Kubernetes with file watching and automated rebuilds and syncs. https://skaffold.dev https://skaffold.dev

- merusso 5y agoI believe the point of this article was to point out alternatives to Docker Desktop -- that is, Docker solutions that run on Windows and Mac hosts. The point wasn't to highlight alternative k8s distributions.
