 Follow the [installation](./how-to/installation/installation.md) instructions to deploy NGINX Gateway Fabric on your Kind cluster.
 
+{{<note>}} For `kind` clusters, NodePort services require [extra configuration](https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/docs/user/configuration/#nodeport-with-port-mappings) and LoadBalancer services need [a third-party controller](https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/docs/user/loadbalancer/) like MetalLB for external IP assignment. However, the Helm chart creates a LoadBalancer service by default. To avoid this, you can disable service creation by adding `--set service.create=false` to your Helm command and use the port-forwarding command below instead to try out the examples. {{</note>}}
