Write a few Helm charts and you'll understand why people want to stop using it. `nindent` will become a curse word in your vocabulary. It's a fine tool at the user level, but the DX is an atrocity.
- bigstrat2003 1y agoI mean, I have written a few (like 5-10?) and I don't understand either. I find that Helm is quite a nice tool which does its job very well.
- cbzbc 1y agoWhat are you planning on moving to ?
- chuckadams 1y agoProbably kustomize, as my needs are simple. If I care to get fancy, I’m pondering giving Yoke a try.
- theteapot 1y agoWhat's wrong with `kubectl apply -f xxx.yaml`?
- physicles 1y agoWe use kustomize because we have four environments that run basically the same stuff (dev with k3s, test, and two cloud regions). If we didn’t use kustomize, we’d be forced to reinvent it to avoid duplicating so much yaml.

- davidham 1y agoI used kustomize to build an ArgoCD install at a previous company, and I was impressed at how powerful it was. Our setup was pretty involved, and kustomize was able to handle all the per-environment differences easily, and the code was easy to work with.
- dpkirchner 1y agoI'm using either opentofu(terraform) or plain yaml. I'm not a huge fan of HCL but at least it is structured and easily manipulated without worrying about whitespace.
- hbogert 1y agoeasily manipulated? How?
