You need to have access to kubernetes cluster (including minikube or docker edge ) in order to run Argo CD on your laptop:

• install kubectl: brew install kubectl
• make sure kubectl is connected to your cluster (e.g. kubectl get pods should work).
• install application CRD using following command:

$ kubectl create -f install/manifests/01_application-crd.yaml

• start Argo CD services using goreman:

$ goreman start
