# Installing the Client Tools
In this lab you will install the command line utilities required to complete this tutorial: [kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl).
## Install kubectl
The `kubectl` command line utility is used to interact with the Kubernetes API Server. Download and install `kubectl` from the official release binaries:
### Linux
```
wget https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.13.0/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl
```
```
chmod +x kubectl
```
```
sudo mv kubectl /usr/local/bin/
```
### Verification
Verify `kubectl` version 1.13.0 or higher is installed:
```
kubectl version --client
```
> output
```
