eksctl is a simple CLI tool for creating clusters on EKS - Amazon's newly managed Kubernetes service for EC2. It is written in Go, and uses CloudFormation. eksctl is available to install from official releases as described below. We recommend that you install eksctl from only the official GitHub releases. You may opt to use a third-party installer, but please be advised that AWS does not maintain nor support these methods of installation. Use them at your own discretion. You will need to have AWS API credentials configured. What works for AWS CLI or any other tools (kops, Terraform, etc.) should be sufficient. You can use ~/.aws/credentials file or environment variables.
