Helm (Github, Docs) is a tool for managing Kubernetes packages called charts.

• Charts, Helm Hub
• Examples

Helm can do the following:

• Create new charts from scratch
• Package charts into chart archive (tgz) files
• Interact with chart repositories where charts are stored
• Install and uninstall charts into an existing Kubernetes cluster
• Manage the release cycle of charts that have been installed with Helm

For Helm, there are three important concepts:

• The chart is a bundle of information necessary to create an instance of a Kubernetes application.
• The config contains configuration information that can be merged into a packaged chart to create a releasable object.
• A release is a running instance of a chart, combined with a specific config.
