This project build must use vagrant and virtualBox?

I think the running environment of this project is too complex. Can you provide a simpler run and deployment mode?

Hey,

Actually it makes it much simpler, takes a lot of the boilerplate by installing 2 simple programs.
Keep in mind, it keeps you as close to the real env as possible.

Did you give it a try and then just: 'vagrant up'

I am sorry maybe I am an idiot but I tried seeing if I can use this despite not knowing go yet and the instructions don't make sense to me. I have a real web server (with wordpress and other small personal applications installed) and I am not sure how to make this work on there. I would like it to be accessible directly on the website and not on my computer for my needs. If you are willing to help it'd be much appreciated.

@gabzo Not sure about the terminology about the 'real web server', but I assume you mean a LAMP setup based on PHP and Apache.

This project will not run on a LAMP setup, it can only run within K8s on your local PC or cloud/remote K8s cluster.

The easiest way, is following the setup guide and having this up and running locally, using 'vagrant up' - it might take a while but it for sure be the simplest way.

Vagrant exposes the service locally, but you can always configure a reverse proxy (eg, nginx) to expose things externally (In general, this is usually true for any service you can get running locally and connect to via localhost;port etc).
