Local Docker Cluster
The easiest way to try Talos is by using the CLI (talosctl) to create a cluster on a machine with docker installed.
Prerequisites
talosctl
Download talosctl (macOS or Linux):
brew install siderolabs/tap/talosctl
kubectl
Download kubectl via one of methods outlined in the documentation.
Create the Cluster
Now run the following:
talosctl cluster create
{{% alert title="Note" color="info" %}} If you are using Docker Desktop on a macOS computer you will need to enable the default Docker socket in your settings. {{% /alert %}}
You can explore using Talos API commands:
talosctl dashboard --nodes 10.5.0.2
Verify that you can reach Kubernetes:
kubectl get nodes -o wide

talos-default-controlplane-1   Ready    master   115s   v{{< k8s_release >}}   10.5.0.2      <none>        Talos ({{< release >}})   <host kernel>    containerd://1.5.5

Destroy the Cluster
When you are all done, remove the cluster:
talosctl cluster destroy
