Setting up minikube on Digital Ocean
Installation
Make sure you satisfy all the requirements for minikube, the plan I had to use with Digital Ocean was at 2 vCPUs / 2 GB Memory / 25 GB Disk / Ubuntu 20.04 (LTS) x64
You will need to create a new user account on the system to run minikube
Also you need docker installed as non-root.
sudo groupadd docker
sudo usermod -aG docker ${USER}
This will let you run Docker without sudo
minikube can be deployed as a VM, a container, or bare-metal. And the preferred drivers are Docker or KVM2
minikube has a better doc on this than Kubernetes
