+2. AWS CLI
+3. kubectl
+
+###  Install dependencies

+
+```
+curl -LO https://github.com/kubernetes/kops/releases/download/$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/kubernetes/kops/releases/latest | grep tag_name | cut -d '"' -f 4)/kops-linux-amd64

+
+sudo mv kops-linux-amd64 /usr/local/bin/kops
+```

+
+1. AmazonEC2FullAccess
+2. AmazonS3FullAccess
+3. IAMFullAccess
+4. AmazonVPCFullAccess
+
+### Set up AWS CLI configuration on your EC2 Instance or Laptop.
+
+Run `aws configure`
+
+## Kubernetes Cluster Installation 
+
+Please follow the steps carefully and read each command before executing.
+
+### Create S3 bucket for storing the KOPS objects.
+
+```
+aws s3api create-bucket --bucket kops-abhi-storage --region us-east-1
+```
+
+### Create the cluster 
+
+```
+kops create cluster --name=demok8scluster.k8s.local --state=s3://kops-abhi-storage --zones=us-east-1a --node-count=1 --node-size=t2.micro --master-size=t2.micro  --master-volume-size=8 --node-volume-size=8
+```
+
+### Important: Edit the configuration as there are multiple resources created which won't fall into the free tier.
+
+```
+kops edit cluster myfirstcluster.k8s.local
+```
+
+Step 12: Build the cluster
+
+```
+kops update cluster demok8scluster.k8s.local --yes
+```
+
+This will take a few minutes to create............
+
+After a few mins, run the below command to verify the cluster installation.
+
+```
+kops validate cluster demok8scluster.k8s.local
+```
+
