Follow these steps to install eksctl

 To create an EKS Cluster using the `eksctl` command in Windows 11, you need to install the `eksctl` software. Follow these steps to install `eksctl`:


1. **Install `eksctl`:**


   - Open your preferred terminal (Command Prompt, PowerShell, or Windows Terminal).

   - Download the `eksctl` binary by running the following command:


     ```powershell

     Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://github.com/weaveworks/eksctl/releases/latest/download/eksctl_windows_amd64.zip" -OutFile "eksctl.zip"

     ```


   - Extract the downloaded zip file:


     ```powershell

     Expand-Archive -Path "eksctl.zip" -DestinationPath "$HOME\.eksctl"

     ```


   - Add the `eksctl` binary to your PATH:


     ```powershell

     $env:Path += ";$HOME\.eksctl"

     ```


   Alternatively, you can manually download the `eksctl` binary from the [official GitHub releases page](https://github.com/weaveworks/eksctl/releases) and extract it to a directory that is included in your system PATH.


2. **Verify the Installation:**


   - After adding `eksctl` to your PATH, verify the installation by running:


     ```sh

     eksctl version

     ```


     This should display the version of `eksctl` you installed.


3. **Install AWS CLI (if not already installed):**


   - To interact with AWS services, you'll also need the AWS CLI. Install it by following the official [AWS CLI installation guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/install-cliv2-windows.html).


   - Verify the installation by running:


     ```sh

     aws --version

     ```


4. **Configure AWS CLI:**


   - Configure the AWS CLI with your credentials:


     ```sh

     aws configure

     ```


     Enter your AWS Access Key ID, Secret Access Key, default region name (e.g., `us-east-2`), and default output format.


After completing these steps, you should be able to run the `eksctl create cluster` command to create your EKS cluster.
