<p>I have installed both kubernetes and docker on Ubuntu in an effort to have the similar dev environment that I have on my windows 10 machine so I can debug a problem with extra \r\n on my kubernetes secrets.</p>

<p>How do you perform <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51072235/does-kubernetes-come-with-docker-by-default">this</a> step on Ubuntu?</p>

<p>I think I need something like <code>kubectl config use-context docker-for-desktop</code> which doesn't work on Ubuntu or configure kubectl to point to the right docker port.</p>

<p>How do I get kubernetes configured?</p>

<p>I am on Ubuntu 18.10.

<p>Docker Enterprise Edition(EE) for Ubuntu is the only container platform with a built-in choice of orchestrators (Docker Swarm and Kubernetes), operating systems, (Windows and multiple Linux distributions), and supported infrastructure (bare metal, VMs, cloud, and more) -<a href="https://store.docker.com/editions/enterprise/docker-ee-server-ubuntu" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://store.docker.com/editions/enterprise/docker-ee-server-ubuntu</a> </p>

<p><a href="https://forums.docker.com/t/is-there-a-built-in-kubernetes-in-docker-ce-for-linux/54374" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Here’s</a> an answer confirming the same</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Docker’s Community Edition engine for Linux does not include built-in
  kubernetes capabilities. We say</p>
  
  <p>We have added Kubernetes support in both Docker Desktop for Mac and
  Windows and in Docker Enterprise Edition (EE).</p>
  
  <p>You can build a Kubernetes cluster yourself on top of one or more CE
  engines, though. For some guidance, you can visit the setup
  documentation at <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/scratch/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/scratch/</a></p>
