CodeReady Containers - OpenShift 4 on your Laptop

Note

Each released crc binary expires 30 days after the release due to certificates embedded in the Openshift cluster. Using an older crc binary will result in an expired certificates error. To resolve this error: Download the latest CodeReady Containers release and place the crc binary in your $PATH. Remove the cluster with certificate errors using the crc delete command. Set up the new release with the crc setup command. Start the new cluster with the crc start command.

Introduction

This project is focused on bringing a minimal OpenShift 4.0 or newer cluster to your local laptop or desktop computer.

If you are looking for a solution for running OpenShift 3.x, you will need tools such as oc cluster up, Minishift or CDK.

Check back for updates, we plan to have something available "soon".
