Karmada-Mac

Run karmada natively on Mac, without virtual machine or Docker.

Why Karmada-Mac

The official installation of karmada is running in docker. As is known to all, running docker on Mac is with the help of virtual machine. But vm costs too much hardware resource, it works hard for mac with low level hardware. This repository is committed to resolving this problem.

• Abandoning vm, run karmada natively and lightly.
• Easy debug for karmada developer.

Quick Start

Prerequisites

Run installing kubernetes scripts needs bash version of 4.2. Check it with:
