How I configured TCE and deployed my first real workload in my homelab

[jbowdre]

Hi all,

I'm pretty new to TCE, and my only real experience thus far with Kubernetes in general has been guided workshops and training labs. I feel like I don't really get a great understanding of a new-to-me solution until I've actually used it to address a need. With that in mind, I spent some time over the past week getting TCE set up on my NUC homelab and then deployed phpIPAM to it. I really enjoyed the learning experience and I look forward to diving deeper in the coming weeks.

I took notes along the way and shared those on my blog in case my experience can help anyone else in getting started with TCE:
