+This overview is intended for anyone who wants to use `kubectl` command line tool to interact with Kubernetes cluster. Please remember that it is built for quick started with `kubectl`; for complete and detailed information, please refer to [kubectl](kubectl/kubectl.md).
+
+TODO: auto-generate this file to stay up with `kubectl` changes. Please see [#14177](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/14177).
+
+## Overview
+
+`kubectl` controls the Kubernetes cluster manager. The synopsis is:
+
+```
+kubectl [command] [TYPE] [NAME] [flags]
+```
+
+This specifies:
+
+- `command` is a certain operation performed on a given resource(s), such as `create`, `get`, `describe`, `delete` etc.
+- `TYPE` is the type of resource(s). Both singular and plural forms are accepted. For example, `node(s)`, `namespace(s)`, `pod(s)`, `replicationcontroller(s)`, `service(s)` etc.
+- `NAME` is the name of resource(s). `TYPE NAME` can be specified as `TYPE name1 name2` or `TYPE/name1 TYPE/name2`. `TYPE NAME` can also be specified by one or more file arguments: `-f file1 -f file2 ...`, [use YAML rather than JSON](config-best-practices.md) since YAML tends to be more user-friendly for config.
+- `flags` are used to provide more control information when running a command. For example, you can use `-s` or `--server` to specify the address and port of the Kubernetes API server. Command line flags override their corresponding default values and environment variables. [Use short flags sparingly, only for the most frequently used options](../devel/kubectl-conventions.md).
+
+Please use `kubectl help [command]` for detailed information about a command.
+
+Please refer to [kubectl](kubectl/kubectl.md) for a complete list of available commands and flags.
+
+## Common Operations
+
+For explanation, here I gave some mostly often used `kubectl` command examples. Please replace sample names with actual values if you would like to try these commands.
+
+1. `kubectl create` - Create a resource by filename or stdin
+
+ // Create a service using the data in example-service.yaml.
+ $ kubectl create -f example-service.yaml
+
+ // Create a replication controller using the data in example-controller.yaml.
+ $ kubectl create -f example-controller.yaml
+
+ // Create objects whose definitions are in a directory. This looks for config objects in all .yaml, .yml, and .json files in and passes them to create.
+ $ kubectl create -f
+
+2. `kubectl get` - Display one or many resources
+
+ // List all pods in ps output format.
+ $ kubectl get pods
+
+ // List all pods in ps output format with more information (such as node name).
+ $ kubectl get pods -o wide
+
+ // List a single replication controller with specified name in ps output format. You can use the alias 'rc' instead of 'replicationcontroller'.
+ $ kubectl get replicationcontroller
+
+ // List all replication controllers and services together in ps output format.
+ $ kubectl get rc,services
+
+3. `kubectl describe` - Show details of a specific resource or group of resources
+
+ // Describe a node
+ $ kubectl describe nodes
+
+ // Describe a pod
+ $ kubectl describe pods/
+
+ // Describe all pods managed by the replication controller
+ // (rc-created pods get the name of the rc as a prefix in the pod the name).
+ $ kubectl describe pods
+
+4. `kubectl delete` - Delete resources by filenames, stdin, resources and names, or by resources and label selector
+
+ // Delete a pod using the type and name specified in pod.yaml.
+ $ kubectl delete -f pod.yaml
+
+ // Delete pods and services with label name=.
+ $ kubectl delete pods,services -l name=
+
+ // Delete all pods
+ $ kubectl delete pods --all
+
+5. `kubectl exec` - Execute a command in a container
+
+ // Get output from running 'date' from pod , using the first container by default.
+ $ kubectl exec date
+
+ // Get output from running 'date' in from pod .
+ $ kubectl exec -c date
+
+ // Get an interactive tty and run /bin/bash from pod , using the first container by default.
+ $ kubectl exec -ti /bin/bash
+
+6. `kubectl logs` - Print the logs for a container in a pod.
+
+ // Returns snapshot of logs from pod .
+ $ kubectl logs
+
+ // Starts streaming of logs from pod , it is something like 'tail -f'.
+ $ kubectl logs -f
+
