CKAD In 30 Days

Welcome! This repository contains notes, Kubernetes manifest examples, and exercises gathered while studying for the Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD) exam.

Purpose

The goal of this repository is to provide a structured collection of resources to aid in learning and preparing for the CKAD certification. It includes daily study notes, practical YAML examples, and exercises to reinforce concepts.

Repository Structure

The repository is organized into the following directories:

• /Notes: Contains Markdown files with daily study notes covering various CKAD topics (e.g., Day1.md, Day2.md, etc.). These notes summarize key concepts and commands.
• /Manifests: Includes example Kubernetes YAML manifest files for different object types (Pods, Services, Deployments, ConfigMaps, etc.). These can be used for hands-on practice with kubectl apply.
• /Exercises: Contains exercises related to the topics covered in the notes, along with their solutions (e.g., Day5Task.md).

How to Use

1. Follow the Notes: Start with Day1.md in the /Notes directory and progress sequentially.
2. Practice with Manifests: Use the YAML files in the /Manifests directory to create, inspect, and manage Kubernetes objects in a test cluster (like Minikube or Kind).
3. Complete the Exercises: Work through the tasks in the /Exercises directory to test your understanding.
