The user guide is intended for anyone who wants to run programs and services on an existing Kubernetes cluster. Setup and administration of a Kubernetes cluster is described in the [Cluster Admin Guide](/docs/admin/). The [Developer Guide](/docs/devel/) is for anyone wanting to either write code which directly accesses the Kubernetes API, or to contribute directly to the Kubernetes project.
Please ensure you have completed the [prerequisites for running examples from the user guide](/docs/user-guide/prereqs).
## Quick walkthrough
1. [Kubernetes 101](/docs/user-guide/walkthrough/)

## Concept guide
[**Overview**](/docs/user-guide/overview)
: A brief overview of Kubernetes concepts.
[**Cluster**](/docs/admin/)
: A cluster is a set of physical or virtual machines and other infrastructure resources used by Kubernetes to run your applications.
[**Node**](/docs/admin/node)
: A node is a physical or virtual machine running Kubernetes, onto which pods can be scheduled.
[**Pod**](/docs/user-guide/pods)
: A pod is a co-located group of containers and volumes.
[**Label**](/docs/user-guide/labels)
: A label is a key/value pair that is attached to a resource, such as a pod, to convey a user-defined identifying attribute. Labels can be used to organize and to select subsets of resources.
[**Selector**](/docs/user-guide/labels/#label-selectors)
: A selector is an expression that matches labels in order to identify related resources, such as which pods are targeted by a load-balanced service.
[**Replication Controller**](/docs/user-guide/replication-controller)
: A replication controller ensures that a specified number of pod replicas are running at any one time. It both allows for easy scaling of replicated systems and handles re-creation of a pod when the machine it is on reboots or otherwise fails.
[**Service**](/docs/user-guide/services)
: A service defines a set of pods and a means by which to access them, such as single stable IP address and corresponding DNS name.
[**Volume**](/docs/user-guide/volumes)
: A volume is a directory, possibly with some data in it, which is accessible to a Container as part of its filesystem. Kubernetes volumes build upon [Docker Volumes](https://docs.docker.com/userguide/dockervolumes/), adding provisioning of the volume directory and/or device.
[**Secret**](/docs/user-guide/secrets)
: A secret stores sensitive data, such as authentication tokens, which can be made available to containers upon request.
[**Name**](/docs/user-guide/identifiers)
: A user- or client-provided name for a resource.
[**Namespace**](/docs/user-guide/namespaces)
: A namespace is like a prefix to the name of a resource. Namespaces help different projects, teams, or customers to share a cluster, such as by preventing name collisions between unrelated teams.
[**Annotation**](/docs/user-guide/annotations)
: A key/value pair that can hold larger (compared to a label), and possibly not human-readable, data, intended to store non-identifying auxiliary data, especially data manipulated by tools and system extensions. Efficient filtering by annotation values is not supported.
