kid is a utility for launching Kubernetes in Docker

down Tear down a previously started Kubernetes cluster
restart Restart Kubernetes
Linux - Local Docker
On Linux kid will launch Kubernetes using the local Docker Engine.
macOS - Docker Machine or Docker for Mac
On macOS kid will start Kubernetes in the boot2docker VM if there is an active Docker Machine. kid then sets up port forwarding so that you can use kubectl locally without having to ssh into boot2docker.
