kind: Delete one or more clusters.
$ kind delete clusters ${cluster_name}
try on your machine

The command "kind delete clusters ${cluster_name}" is used to delete a Kubernetes cluster that was created using the tool "kind" (Kubernetes IN Docker).

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "kind" refers to the kind tool, which is a command-line utility for running local Kubernetes clusters using Docker container "nodes". It allows you to easily create and manage Kubernetes clusters on your local machine.
  • "delete" is the action that tells the kind tool to delete a cluster.
  • "clusters" is the keyword that specifies that you want to delete a cluster (as opposed to other kind resources like nodes or images).
  • "${cluster_name}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the cluster that you want to delete. You should replace it with the name of the cluster you want to remove.

By running this command, you will delete the specified Kubernetes cluster created with kind from your local machine.
