# Getting started

Get started by connecting Infra App to your Kubernetes Clusters

### Download Infra App

Visit <https://infra.app/download> to download the latest version of Infra App

{% hint style="info" %}
**Additional instructions for Linux AppImage**

If using the AppImage format, make sure to mark the app as executable. For example, on Ubuntu, this can be done by right-clicking on the AppImage file, clicking on Permissions, and then "Allow executing file as program"

Or on the command line, run`chmod +x ./Infra-0.43.0.AppImage`
{% endhint %}

### Connect your Kubernetes cluster

Upon starting, Infra App will automatically look at your local Kubernetes configuration to discover clusters you have access to.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Not seeing any Kubernetes clusters?**

If Infra App doesn't detect your Kubernetes clusters check out one of the [guides below](/getting-started.md#connection-guides-for-common-kubernetes-providers) on connecting Infra App to an existing Kubernetes cluster.&#x20;

If you don't have a Kubernetes cluster, we recommend trying Infra App with [Docker Desktop](/connect-your-cluster/docker-desktop.md).
{% endhint %}

Locally discovered clusters appear in the Cluster Switcher, as shown below.

Infra App will automatically load your active cluster, if you have one:

And that's it. You're up and running with Infra App.
