I think this new line is necessary otherwise rendering is weird

1. After the plugin is finished, verify you have a cluster called `knative`:

```bash
kind get clusters
```

This doesn't render properly for some reason

If the installation times out or pods fail to start, your Kind cluster (Server) version might be incompatible with your local `kubectl` (Client) version.

1. Check your current versions:
```bash
kubectl version

```

2. If the **Server Version** is significantly older than your **Client Version** (or you see a version skew warning), you should recreate the cluster using a matching version:
```bash
# Replace 1.XX.Y with your Client Version (e.g., 1.35.0)
kn-quickstart kind --kubernetes-version 1.XX.Y

```


For more details on version compatibility, see the [Kind Known Issues](https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/docs/user/known-issues/).
