# 🚀 CKAD Exam Practice: Killer.sh-Inspired Scenarios
Welcome to the **CKAD Exam Practice Repository**! This project provides a curated set of practical exercises inspired by the [Killer.sh CKAD Simulator](https://killer.sh/ckad/), designed to help you prepare for the **Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD)** exam by the CNCF.
## 📘 About the Project
This repository aims to replicate the style and difficulty of the Killer.sh CKAD simulator by offering:
* 📂 Realistic, exam-style Kubernetes scenarios
* ⚙️ Task-based YAML and CLI exercises
* 🧠 Topic coverage based on the official [CKAD curriculum](https://github.com/cncf/curriculum)
* ✅ Verified answers and best-practice solutions
All exercises are intended for self-paced learning and to simulate real exam pressure under time constraints.
## 📈 Covered Topics
The repository includes tasks and examples across all core domains of the CKAD 2025 curriculum:
| Domain | % Weight | Topics Covered |
| ------- |----------|----------------------------------------------|
| **1. Application Environment, Configuration and Security** | 25% | ConfigMaps, Secrets, SecurityContext |
| **2. Application Design and Build** | 20% | Pods, Deployments, Sidecars, Init Containers |
| **3. Application Deployment** | 20% | Helm, Kustomize, Blue/Green |
| **4. Services and Networking** | 20% | Services, DNS, Network Policies |
| **5. Application Observability and Maintenance** | 15% | Probes, Logging, Monitoring |
## 🏁 How to Use
