Every time I try to get into Kustomize, I feel it just has a documentation problem. It's written in Ph.D.ese without suitable examples But, if it helps, my mental model of Kustomize is "it's a sequence of JSON Patch [1] operations"[2] which makes it absolutely stellar for mutating someone else's helm chart[3] (or yaml) since you can target anything for updating to your needs My secondary complaint is that even JetBrains don't have good support for it, which makes working with them extra hard mode 1: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6902.html https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6902.html 2: it's a very "functional programming language" mental model https://kubectl.docs.kubernetes.io/references/kustomize/kustomization/#everything-is-a-transformer https://kubectl.docs.kubernetes.io/references/kustomize/kust... 3: https://kubectl.docs.kubernetes.io/references/kustomize/builtins/#_helmchartinflationgenerator_ https://kubectl.docs.kubernetes.io/references/kustomize/buil...
