(WSL 2).\n\nIt works in a way similar to [Rancher Desktop](https://rancherdesktop.io/), but\nit's simpler and is fully CLI based.\n\nIt is based on Alpine Linux. The resulting WSL distribution can also be used for\nbuilding Docker images with the help of Postman.\n\n\u003cp align=\"right\"\u003e(\u003ca href=\"#top\"\u003eback to top\u003c/a\u003e)\u003c/p\u003e\n\n### Built With\n\nThis project uses the following components:\n\n- [go](https://go.dev/)\n- [cobra](https://github.com/spf13/cobra)\n- [logrus](github.com/sirupsen/logrus)\n- [pterm](https://github.com/pterm/pterm)\n\n\u003cp align=\"right\"\u003e(\u003ca href=\"#top\"\u003eback to top\u003c/a\u003e)\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- GETTING STARTED --\u003e\n\n## Getting Started\n\nKaweezle is better installed with [Scoop](https://scoop.sh/). The following\nassumes you are using it.\n\n### Prerequisites\n\nTo run kaweezle, you'll need to have\n[WSL installed](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install).\n\nThe simplest way to install it is to run the following command:\n\n```console\n\u003e wsl --install\n```\n\nAfter reboot, update the kernel and set the default version to version 2:\n\n```console\n\u003e sudo wsl --update\n\u003e wsl --set-default-version 2\n```\n\nTo use the kubernetes cluster, you will need to have kubectl installed:\n\n```console\n\u003e scoop install kubectl\n```\n\nOther tools might be of insterest, like `k9s`, `kubectx`, `kubens` or `stern`.\nAll are available through scoop. You can install all of them at once with the\nfollowing command:\n\n```console\n\u003e scoop install k9s kubectx kubens stern\n```\n\n### Installation\n\nTo install kaweezle, issue the following command:\n\n```console\n\u003e scoop bucket add kaweezle https://github.com/kaweezle/scoop-bucket\n\u003e scoop install kaweezle\n```\n\n\u003cp align=\"right\"\u003e(\u003ca href=\"#top\"\u003eback to top\u003c/a\u003e)\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- USAGE EXAMPLES --\u003e\n\n## Usage\n\nFirst, install the kaweezle distribution with the following command:\n\n```console\n\u003e kaweezle start\n```\n\nThis will install the Kaweezle distribution, start it and install kubernetes on\nit.\n\nAt the end of the installation you will have the following:\n\n- The `kaweezle` distribution, running the current version of Kubernetes.\n- A `kaweezle` kube context allowing to access the cluster.\n\n**TODO**: Need some DNS to access the LB entrypoint ?\n\n\u003cp align=\"right\"\u003e(\u003ca href=\"#top\"\u003eback to top\u003c/a\u003e)\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- ROADMAP --\u003e\n\n## Roadmap\n\n- [x] Finish `install` command\n- [x] Make rootfs downloadable\n- [x] Make kaweezle installable via scoop\n- [ ] Make kaweezle available on scoop extras bucket\n- [ ] ...\n\nSee the [open issues](https://github.com/kaweezle/kaweezle/issues) for a full\nlist of proposed features (and known issues).\n\n\u003cp align=\"right\"\u003e(\u003ca href=\"#top\"\u003eback to top\u003c/a\u003e)\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- CONTRIBUTING --\u003e\n\n## Contributing\n\nAny contributions you make are **greatly appreciated**.\n\nIf you have a suggestion that would make this better, please fork the repo and\ncreate a pull request.
