HDS running in KIND for development purposes

The HaikuDepotServer (HDS) is a supporting internet application for the Haiku operating system. The application is built using Java and SpringBoot.

HDS has been deployed in production using Kubernetes for some years now, but the developer instructions have been around running container builds locally in Docker rather than Kubernetes.

KIND is s system for running a Kubernetes cluster inside Docker and is very easy to get started with. I have recently migrated the HDS documentation from Doc-book to Markdown and at the same time, have introduced a new page with step-by-step instructions on how to run an HDS instance locally.
