I’ve been getting up to speed over the last few months.
Don’t do what I did: googling and going through random top hits. Most of these are 1-off blog articles that revolve around “install Helm and then do these 6 things” or “just kubectl apply random.link.com/some-script”.
Doing that just leads to tons of confusion and anger.
My recommendation: Suck it up and read through the official kubernetes docs. Their docs aren’t written in a way to easily explain core concepts unfortunately. However, slogging through it will give you some initial exposure to concepts and will let you know where to go back to later when your making mental connections.
Next, look for k8s tutorials from Digital Ocean and Linode. In my opinion, they’re the best written guides for demonstrating how to get from A to B.
You’ll start running through those guides and be referencing back to the official docs. Gradually bridges will form on your head and you’ll get an intermediate, functional level of competence.
