If you didn’t have helm, you’d be using one of the other, much better tools, and be happier for it.

- osigurdson 3y agoI generally meant, if you didn't have something like helm you would use regex. In any case, please elucidate, what tool do you like best?
- grncdr 3y agoNot the poster you're replying to, but when it comes to deploying your own applications: generating Kubernetes manifests with whatever language you're already using and feeding JSON to `kubectl apply -f -` can accomplish the same outcome with less effort. Helm is still useful for consuming 3rd party charts, but IMO it's status as the "default" is more due to inertia more than good design.
- osigurdson 3y agoIn my own experience I started off doing this because I wasn't ready to learn helm. However, after using helm once I didn't see the reason to do it in my own code any more.
- osigurdson 3y agoI get the sense for the responses (and downvoting) that I will eventually learn to dislike helm!
- rsanders 3y agoWhich ones would you recommend?
