Kubee App Chart

An app chart is a kubee chart that install/upgrade an application.

Helm Wrapper

An app chart

• create a helm chart dynamically with:
  • helm templating,
  • jsonnet

App Charts are therefore generated Helm Charts.

You:

• use any Helm command to manage them
• except for the installation and upgrade
