• Run command to build the image and then view it:

  docker build --tag nginx-helloworld:latest .

  kubectl port-forward pods/hello-world 8080:80
  

  [!IMPORTANT]

  You will need to wait in between these commands, or you may receive error: unable to forward port because pod is not running. Current status=Pending.
