+
+##### Step 1: Set Up a Local KIND Cluster
+1. Install KIND:
+    - Follow the installation guide from [KIND official documentation.](https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/docs/user/quick-start/#installation)
+2. Create a Cluster
+    ```bash
+    kind create cluster --name cncf-cluster
+    ```
+     
+##### Step 2: Configure GitHub Actions to Use KIND
+1. Set Up Runner:
+    - Refer to the [ARC Work by @jeefy](https://github.com/jeefy/gha-runner) for setting up the Actions Runner Controller (ARC).
+
+2. Apply Cluster Configuration:
+    - Navigate to the directory where your configuration files are located.
+    - Apply the configuration:
+        ```bash
+        kubectl apply -f path/to/your/configuration.yaml
+        ```
+
+##### Step 3: Test GitHub Actions Configuration
+- Run a Workflow Locally:
+    - Use the following command to run a GitHub Actions workflow locally:
+        ```bash
+        act -j your_workflow_job
+        ```
+- Verify the Setup:
+    - Ensure the runners are working as expected by checking the logs and the status of the pods:
+        ```bash
+        kubectl get pods -n arc-systems
+        ```
