Explore and Debug Kubernetes Applications: A Hands-On Guide to Cluster Deployment and Rollbacks

Stepping into the world of Kubernetes can feel like being handed the keys to a massive, automated city without a map. While container orchestration is the backbone of modern cloud-native architecture, the learning curve is notoriously steep. This guide transforms that complexity into a structured journey. Instead of watching endless videos, you will dive into a cloud-native playground where you build, break, and fix real-world clusters. Whether you are a developer looking to deploy your first app or a sysadmin transitioning to the cloud, this path provides the tactical skills needed to manage containerized applications at scale.
