The Guestbook sample demonstrates how to deploy a Kubernetes application with a front end service and a back end service using the Cloud Code IDE extension.

For details on how to use this sample as a template in Cloud Code, read the documentation for Cloud Code for VS Code or IntelliJ.

1. To run your application, click on the Cloud Code status bar and select ‘Run on Kubernetes’.
   

2. Select ‘Run locally using minikube’ when prompted. Cloud Code runs your app in a local minikube cluster.
   

3. View the build progress in the OUTPUT window. Once the build has finished, click on the front end service's URL in the OUTPUT window to view your live application.
   

4. To stop the application, click the stop icon on the Debug Toolbar.

1. Navigate to the Kubernetes Explorer from the right side panel, or by going to Tools > Cloud Code > Kubernetes > View Cluster Explorer.

2. If the Cluster Explorer is empty, go to the terminal and run 'minikube start'.
   

3. Once minikube has started, it will be displayed in the Cluster Explorer. Minikube will be set as the current context by default. To switch contexts, right click on a different cluster in the Cluster Explorer and select 'Set as Current Context'.
   

1. Click the Run/Debug configurations dropdown on the top taskbar and select 'Edit Configurations'. Select 'Develop on Kubernetes'. You may need to specify your container image repository.
   

2. Click 'OK' to save your configuration.

3. Select 'Develop on Kubernetes' from the configuration drop down and click the run icon. Cloud Code runs your app in a local minikube cluster.
   

4. View the build process in the output window. Once the build has finished, you will receive a notification from the Event Log. Click 'View' to access the local URLs for your deployed services. The URLs remain accessible through the Event Log dialog.
   

5. To stop the application, click the stop icon next to the configuration dropdown.
