Install the Newest Docker Desktop version 4.38.0

Docker released a New Docker Desktop version 4.38.0 with new features:

• nstalling Docker Desktop via the PKG installer is now generally available.
• Enforcing sign-in via configuration profiles is now generally available.
• Docker Compose, Docker Scout, the Docker CLI, and Ask Gordon can now be updated independently of Docker Desktop and without a full restart (Beta).
• The new update command has been added to the Docker Desktop CLI (Mac only).
• Bake is now generally available, with support for entitlements and composable attributes.
• You can now create multi-node Kubernetes clusters in Docker Desktop.
• Ask Gordon is more widely available. It is still in Beta.

In the following steps I’m upgrading my Docker Desktop Kubernetes 1-Node Cluster to a 4-Node Kubernetes Cluster:

Go to Settings in Docker Desktop and click on Kubernetes

Click on Kind.
Here you can select the Kubernetes version and how much nodes you need.

IMPORTANT: This will create a new Kubernetes Cluster!
(the old 1-node cluster will be gone)

Creating 4-Node Kubernetes Cluster in Docker Desktop

When you have “Show System Containers” in Settings at Kubernetes on
then you see these 4-Nodes here in VSCode.

Happy Coding
