It's an imperative package manager for a fully declarative control plane. All of the pain of traditional package managers, which, when added to Helm's own special properties, will really leave you grasping for the co-codamol. helm-controller and flux can only sort of alleviate the agony

I thought I'd reach for writing a Helm chart because Kustomize makes it really difficult to just copy and merge fields into multiple places ie env, envFrom, securityContext, etc. Big fucking mistake, I now have a kustomization which patches the application's container spec and then copies the right fields to init containers, cronjobs, etc
