This Docker image provide kubectl and helm for working with K8S cluster and specially AWS EKS cluster.

⁠Supported versions

By default, kubectl will try to use /root/.kube/config file for connection to the kubernetes cluster, but does not exist by default in the image.

Mount host ~/.kube/config to container for troubleshooting
