# Installing kubectl and Helm on your computer
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In order to work with the GitLab Helm charts, `kubectl` and `helm` must be installed and configured on your computer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installing `kubectl`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`kubectl` is the Kubernetes command line tool, which can be used to deploy settings to the cluster.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Follow the [official documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl/) for the most up to date instructions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installing `helm`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Helm is a package management tool for Kubernetes, and is used to deploy charts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can get Helm from the project's [releases page](https://github.com/kubernetes/helm/releases), or follow other options under the official documentation of [Installing Helm](https://docs.helm.sh/using_helm/#installing-helm).
|
||
