> Hard part is deployments. Managing Kube's raw yaml files is tedious. What tools are y'all using there? I am having a tough time with Helm, but I feel like that is the standard answer these days. kubecfg (with jsonnet) or CUE. Gives you actual composability and a powerful programming language for reducing boilerplate. Oh, and no text templating. With kubecfg deploying/updating is: kubecfg update foo.jsonnet No need to first build any Helm images or for any scaffolding. Just get `kubecfg` on your PATH and you're done. Version things the same way you version the rest of your code. Build your own abstractions that solve your particular problems as you go, instead of relying on someone's idea on how your deployments should work. Perfect for building orga-wide microservice deployment boilerplate.
