2. Verify your Minikube cluster: minikube status 🔍
3. Create a dedicated namespace: kubectl create ns monitoring 🗄️
4. Add the Grafana Helm chart repository:
helm repo add grafana https://grafana.github.io/helm-charts
5. Verify the repository addition: helm repo list ✅
6. Install Grafana using Helm:
helm install grafana grafana/grafana --namespace monitoring 🛠️
7. Verify installation by listing pods: kubectl get pods -n monitoring 🔍
8. Access Grafana UI through port-forwarding:
kubectl port-forward svc/my-grafana 3000:80 -n monitoring
9. Open Grafana in your browser: 🌐 Go to http://localhost:3000
