<p>I'm using windows and I facing a big problem with running Kubernetes.</p>
<p>Each time I want to start Kubernetes must I run this command <code>minikube start</code> and it takes a very long time after that must I run this command <code>minikube dashboard</code> it's taking too much time.</p>
<p>Is there a way to solve it?</p>

<p>As you know <code>minikube</code> is a single node K8S cluster for development/demo purposes.</p>
<p>You can have a script that will start <code>minikube</code> if it's not started or use another tool instead of <code>minikube</code> which will load faster.</p>
<h3>Script for starting minikube</h3>
<ul>
<li>here is a script I wrote a few years back (just update the minikube version to suit your needs)
