Why Helm’s design is flawed, with Jacco Taal

Helm is a popular tool for templating and packaging Kubernetes resources, but does it mean it's the best?

In this episode of KubeFM, Jacco draws a parallel between Helm and PHP and the similarity in which both tools became a success despite their focus on templating strings.

You will also learn:

• Helm's flaws and how you can avoid them.

• Alternative tools that can (partially) replace Helm.

• How to manage third-party packages and templating internal YAML resources.

Jacco shared several examples demonstrating duplication in Helm charts and a lack of structured typing.
