---
# The runner's playground namespace can be used to deploy a virtual cluster
# with vcluster. The vcluster behaves as a full fledged Kubernetes cluster on
# which the runner is admin. Namespaces, Custom Resource Definitions and other
# cluster-scope resources can be created.
#
# Deploying the vcluster in the playground namespaces requires including a few
# steps at the beginning of the workflow. This file provides an example
# workflow that deploys a vcluster and uses it to deploy a basic application.
# In addition, it shows how to use the local docker registry, which is also
# accessible from the vcluster.
