Channel Version Published

Tool for bootstrapping Kubernetes clusters.

kubeadm performs the actions necessary to get a minimum viable cluster up and running. By design, it cares only about bootstrapping, not about provisioning machines. Likewise, installing various nice-to-have addons, like the Kubernetes Dashboard, monitoring solutions, and cloud-specific addons, is not in scope.

For more information about kubeadm, see the [kubeadm overview](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/setup-tools/kubeadm/kubeadm/).
