| 🔥 Production SRE | Advanced | System admin, automation | 2 |
Docker troubleshooting — When containers act like rebellious teenagers
Kubernetes debugging — Because clusters love throwing tantrums
Production scenarios — Real-world chaos without the screaming bosses (hopefully)

Docker (auto-installed by setup, if you don’t want to wait forever)
kubectl (also auto-installed, for your convenience)
NOTE: Auto-install might take a while (because patience is a virtue nobody asked for). We highly recommend installing Docker, Kubernetes, and Minikube yourself first — then run the auto-setup to verify everything didn’t self-destruct.
We’re “working hard” on the setup script… but if you want to help, contributions are welcome. No pressure. Seriously.
