+## Installing KubeFlex on Kubernetes Clusters
+
+Once you have the KubeFlex CLI installed, you can deploy KubeFlex on various Kubernetes distributions:
+
+### Quick Start with Kind (Recommended for Development)
+
+The easiest way to get started is with a new kind cluster:
+
+```bash
+# Create a kind cluster and install KubeFlex
+kflex init --create-kind
+```
+
+This command will:
+- Create a new kind cluster named `kubeflex`
+- Install nginx ingress with SSL passthrough
+- Deploy the KubeFlex operator
+- Set up PostgreSQL as the shared backend
+
+### Installing on Existing Clusters
+
+KubeFlex can be installed on existing Kubernetes clusters that support nginx ingress with SSL passthrough.
+
+#### Prerequisites for Existing Clusters
+
+Your cluster must have:
+- nginx ingress controller with SSL passthrough enabled
+- Sufficient resources (2+ CPU cores, 4GB+ RAM)
+- Storage class for persistent volumes
+
+#### Supported Distributions
+
+- **Kind** - Local development clusters
+- **k3d** - Lightweight Kubernetes clusters
+- **OpenShift** - Red Hat's Kubernetes platform
+- **Standard Kubernetes** - Any CNCF-conformant distribution
+
+#### Installation Steps
+
+1. **Ensure nginx ingress is configured for SSL passthrough:**
+
+```bash
+# For existing nginx ingress installations
+kubectl edit deployment ingress-nginx-controller -n ingress-nginx
+```
+
+Add `--enable-ssl-passthrough` to the controller arguments.
+
+2. **Install KubeFlex:**
+
+```bash
+kflex init
+```
+
+### Installing with Helm
+
+For advanced users or production environments, you can install KubeFlex using Helm:
+
+```bash
+# Install KubeFlex operator
+helm upgrade --install kubeflex-operator \
+  oci://ghcr.io/kubestellar/kubeflex/chart/kubeflex-operator \
+  --version <latest-release-version-tag> \
+  --set domain=localtest.me \
+  --set externalPort=9443 \
+  --namespace kubeflex-system \
+  --create-namespace
+```
+
+#### Helm Installation on OpenShift
+
+For OpenShift clusters, add the `isOpenShift=true` parameter:
+
+```bash
+helm upgrade --install kubeflex-operator \
+  oci://ghcr.io/kubestellar/kubeflex/chart/kubeflex-operator \
+  --version <latest-release-version-tag> \
+  --set isOpenShift=true \
+  --namespace kubeflex-system \
+  --create-namespace
+```
+
+## Configuration Options
+
+### Custom Domain Configuration
+
+By default, KubeFlex uses `localtest.me` for local development. For production environments, configure a custom domain:
+
+```bash
+kflex init --domain your-domain.com
+```
+
+### Custom Port Configuration
+
+For environments where port 9443 is not available:
+
+```bash
+kflex init --external-port 8443
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+#### Installation Script Fails
+
+If the installation script fails, use an alternative method:
+
+- macOS/Linux: install via **Homebrew** (Method 2)
+- Any platform: use **Manual Download** (Method 3)
+
+After installation, verify:
+```bash
+kflex version
+```
+
+#### Permission Denied Errors
+
+If you encounter permission errors:
+
+```bash
+# Ensure the binary is executable
+chmod +x /usr/local/bin/kflex
+
+# Check file permissions
+ls -la /usr/local/bin/kflex
+```
+
+#### kubectl Not Found
+
+If kubectl is not installed:
+
+```bash
+# Install kubectl (Linux)
+curl -LO "https://dl.k8s.io/release/$(curl -L -s https://dl.k8s.io/release/stable.txt)/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl"
+sudo install -o root -g root -m 0755 kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl
+
+# Install kubectl (macOS)
+brew install kubectl
+```
+
+#### kind Not Found
+
+If kind is not installed:
+
+```bash
+# Install kind
+curl -Lo ./kind https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/dl/v0.20.0/kind-linux-amd64
+chmod +x ./kind
+sudo mv ./kind /usr/local/bin/kind
+```
