ArgoCD infra & observability labs

Dependencies

• kubectl

Getting Started

Create local cluster with k3s, ingress-nginx and argocd:

make start-k3s

Remove & uninstall k3s:

make delete-k3s

ArgoCD

Limitations

Wifi router can block some port and leave k3s without stable communication. If you want to make sure there is none, try using your 4G network.
