This PR adds all the guides from [Visual Guides](https://bytebytego.com/guides/) section on bytebytego to the repository with proper links. - [x] Markdown files for guides and categories are placed inside `data/guides` and `data/categories` - [x] Guide links in readme are auto-generated using `scripts/readme.ts`. Everytime you run the script `npm run update-readme`, it reads the categories and guides from the above mentioned folders, generate production links for guides and categories and populate the table of content in the readme. This ensures that any future guides and categories will automatically get added to the readme. - [x] Sorting inside the readme matches the actual category and guides sorting on production

k8s is a container orchestration system. It is used for container deployment and management. Its design is greatly impacted by Google’s internal system Borg.
A k8s cluster consists of a set of worker machines, called nodes, that run containerized applications. Every cluster has at least one worker node. [1]
The worker node(s) host the Pods that are the components of the application workload. The control plane manages the worker nodes and the Pods in the cluster. In production environments, the control plane usually runs across multiple computers and a cluster usually runs multiple nodes, providing fault tolerance and high availability. [1]
Control Plane Components
-
API Server
The API server talks to all the components in the k8s cluster. All the operations on pods are executed by talking to the API server.
-
Scheduler
The scheduler watches the workloads on pods and assigns loads on newly created pods.
-
Controller Manager
The controller manager runs the controllers, including Node Controller, Job Controller, EndpointSlice Controller, and ServiceAccount Controller.
-
etcd
etcd is a key-value store used as Kubernetes' backing store for all cluster data.
Nodes
-
Pods
A pod is a group of containers and is the smallest unit that k8s administers. Pods have a single IP address applied to every container within the pod.
-
Kubelet
An agent that runs on each node in the cluster. It ensures containers are running in a Pod. [1]
-
Kube Proxy
kube-proxy is a network proxy that runs on each node in your cluster. It routes traffic coming into a node from the service. It forwards requests for work to the correct containers.
