The usual location for this file is in the current user's home directory at the ```~/.kube/config``` file path. If that doesn't exist, then usually the cluster isn't available. This applies to both clients like the ```kubectl``` command as well as Cockpit's cluster dashboard. + +Cockpit can now prompt for this information, and build this file for you. If it doesn't exist, then there's a helpful "Troubleshoot" button to help get this configuration in place. + +<iframe width="853" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/WSh7wYhAXrA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> + + +### Remove jQuery Usage from cockpit.js API + +As part of stabilizing the internals of Cockpit, we removed jQuery usage from the cockpit.js file.
