This local lab provides a fully automated way to set up a local Kubernetes cluster using Kind and install Crossplane via Helm.

• Crossplane on AWS
• Crossplane on Azure

Ensure you have the following installed on your system:

• Docker Desktop: Required for running Kind clusters.
• Kind: Version 0.11.1 or later.
• Helm: Version 3.2.0 or later.

To install these tools:

brew install kind helm

make create-kind
make install-crossplane

## Customize Crossplane

helm upgrade crossplane --namespace crossplane-system --reuse-values --values values.yaml crossplane-stable/crossplane

## Verify Crossplane
kubectl get pods -n crossplane-system

make clean

• Crossplane Helm Chart
• Upbound: For additional features and tools, check out Upbound's Universal Crossplane.
