Our explanatory and conceptual guides are written to provide a better understanding of how MicroK8s works and how it can be used. Get better at MicroK8s and Kubernetes! Alternatively, our _Tutorials_ section contains step-by-step tutorials to help understand what MicroK8s is and how to install it… If you have a specific goal, but are already familiar with MicroK8s, take a look at our _How-to_ guides. These are more step-by-step practical guides to achieve a specific goal, and whilst complete, assume you have a basic understanding of MicroK8s. Our _Reference section_ is for finding out things like the specific options for Microk8s commands, finding the notes for a specific release or where specific services run. Remember, if you have a request for a topic you’d like to see covered, you can follow the link at the bottom of the page and visit the forum to leave us a message, or add feedback directly from the ‘Help us improve’ tab on the right.
