+# Flux Setup Instructions
+
+1) Create GitHub account
+
+Note your username, which will be referred to later as `YOUR_USERNAME` below.
+
+2) Clone repo
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/ContainerSolutions/gitops-training-lab
+cd gitops-training-lab
+```
+
+3) Gain access to Kubernetes cluster
+
+Some options for creating a cluster:
+
+- Minikube
+
+- AWS / GKE / Azure
+
+- MicroK8s
+
+Whichever you use, you need to end up with admin-level `kubectl` access from the command line.
+
+You can check this is working with:
+
+```
+kubectl cluster-info
+```
+
+4) Set up flux
+
+Follow instructions [here, from 'set up flux' to the end of the page](https://docs.fluxcd.io/en/1.19.0/tutorials/get-started/)
+
+NOTE: that there is no `PODINFO_UI_MESSAGE` in the `podinfo-dep.yaml` file. Add, rather than change it.
