Running K3s with Multipass on Macbook

K3s is the lightweight Kubernetes distribution that is just freshly baked. As its lightweight, it’s ideal to run on a laptop for a developer to explore and experiment with it. But K3s is natively available for Linux. How can we run it on Mac?

Entering Multipass. First, let's install the multipass with the brew.

brew search multipass
brew cask install multipass

Now create a VM with multipass, assuming 1GB memory and 5GB disk.

multipass launch --name k3s --mem 1G --disk 5G
Launched: k3s
