Deploy with Kustomize, FluxCD and Remote Resources
There is some follow-up improvements to come, like OCI registries (announced in FluxCD 0.32), to replace flux.GitRepository. We still need this issue to be solved to be able to use it with all features provided by Kustomize.

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.
What are some alternatives?
