Hello all! This blog post will serve as the gateway that links my blog series where I build out a full stack NodeJS project, containerize it, place the containers into a K8S network, and deploy it on AWS. Initially, this projected started off without much though of how I will deploy it, so the process of deploying an already established application will be a focus of this series.

To follow this series, a basic understanding of Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, debugging, and Javascript is necessary. The steps and concepts highlighted in my articles will run smoothly in most cases, but there will always be a chance that the steps written will not work on you machine. Commands like kubectl describe <object>, kubectl get <object>, docker image ls, docker ps and much more will be needed to troubleshoot issues within our virtual machines.
