During the process of preparing for a another vidcast/vlog, it occurred to me that I was taking installing Minikube a bit for granted. It's super easy of course, but that isn't immediately obvious nor is how valuable Minikube is. So I did a quick vidcast in order to both practice and make sure this info was out there. Enjoy:


Installing VirtualBox

Virtualbox Download page. I went with the Ubuntu 18.04 .deb file which I just clicked on.
