How do you automate Helm charts installation?
I agree with Helm Operator, though it is in maintenance mode and on the cusp of replacement with a newer tool. I'm working with FluxCD org now, on the next generation of Helm Operator, check out Helm Controller, under the new Flux2 which is rapidly approaching 100% feature parity (in the sense of approaching a limit, it is for almost all use cases 100% feature parity already) with the stable Flux v1 + Helm Operator.

Using Terraform to both create kubernetes clusters (AKS) and deploy helm charts in the same project - good or bad?
IMO, a better approach would be to provision your cluster using terraform, then do cluster operations using a GitOps tool, such as GitOps Toolkit (Flux v2) - https://toolkit.fluxcd.io/. You can point multiple clusters to the same repo and they are going to apply and reconcile the desired state for all or your clusters if needed. There’s also a Flux terraform provider - https://github.com/fluxcd/terraform-provider-flux, bootstrap flux then let it do its job.
- Does anyone use terraform to manage Kubernetes objects as opposed to using plain yamls/helm charts/kustomize?
