Kubernetes on Linux Fedora OS

Hi there,

With the goal to become a Kubernetes/SRE expert, I have bought a Linux Fedora OS based machine (64GB RAM) and setup my dev environment - podman, kind etc. I intend to use this set up as the primary local dev environment over GKE cluster for my CKA/CKAD/CKS goals.

Seeking an expert opinion to evaluate this setup. Will I need GKE or the current setup is enough to develop the skin in the game.

Thank you!
