Building a Kubernetes Home Lab environment from scratch might seem like a daunting task. However, it is actually pretty straightforward with the right tools in place. In this video, we are going to use Kubeadm to initialize a Kubernetes cluster from scratch in our home lab environment. Using Kubeadm takes some of the heavy lifting out of the underlying complexities of Kubernetes. We look at how to build the Kubernetes home lab cluster from scratch step-by-step.

They have successfully joined the Kubernetes cluster - 7:45 Kubectl commands are failing. This is because we haven't copied our kubeconfig to our HOME directory - 7:54 Nodes are in the not ready state.
