Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Why the fuck are we templating YAML? (2019)
I would recommend implementing a similar API to Grafana Tanka: https://tanka.dev
When you "synthesise", the returned value should be an array or an object.
1. If it's an object, check if it has an `apiVersion` and `kind` key. If it does, yield that as a kubernetes object and do not recurse.

What Is Wrong with TOML?
Maybe you'd like jsonnet: https://jsonnet.org/
I find it particularly useful for configurations that often have repeated boilerplate, like ansible playbooks or deploying a bunch of "similar-but" services to kubernetes (with https://tanka.dev).
Dhall is also quite interesting, with some tradeoffs: https://dhall-lang.org/
A few years ago I did a small comparison by re-implementing one of my simpler ansible playbooks: https://github.com/retzkek/ansible-dhall-jsonnet

Show HN: Keep – GitHub Actions for your monitoring tools
- validation is often impractical (at least identifying exactly where the error is… I’m looking at you Helm!)
Unrelated to OP, but you can leverage Tanka to extend helm charts with functionality not provided by upstream.

Alternatives to Helm?
Although jsonette might be considered more complex Tanka is a great alternative for k8s config management.
- Helm makes it overly complex, or is it just me?

The YAML Document from Hell
At Grafana Labs we're using jsonnet at scale, while being a powerful functional language it is also excellent for rendering JSON/YAML config. We have developed Tanka[0] to work with Kubernetes, for other purposes I can recommend this course[1] (authored by me).

Should i migrate from Kustomize to Helm?
If you're hitting the limits of Kustomize, maybe look at Tanka as well.
-
Is it possible to wrap Kustomize yaml with jinja2?
Yes, try Tanka.
-
Using Docker – Compose in Development and Production
yes. basically. and this is a path that multiple people are trying to solve. e.g. AWS CDK8s, https://tanka.dev/, etc
Compose would be awesome.

Google Kubernetes clusters config checker tool
http://tanka.dev
(Note I work for Grafana Labs who fund Tanka and use it for all production config)

- Is there any Django app deployment tool for VPS-based environments with UI?
- What's the status of Open Application Model?
-
Using compose files as a universal infrastructure interface, even for Kubernetes
Finally, I think the OAM model offers one possible future. Take a look at projects like KubeVela and Crossplane. These allow you to compose your own custom abstraction layer. The developer creates a simple CRD called "Application" and this is translated into ths k8s or even off-cluster resources. Problem right now is the complexity is transferred onto guys configuring the platform..... I want to see more "out of the box" implementations.
- Helm or Kustomize for my situation?
- KubeVela, the extensible engine for IDP and platform engineering
-
Opinionated application platform on top of Kubernetes?
Gotcha, thanks! We already run ArgoCD but having devs write raw manifests feels so low-level when it’s usually the same combo of configmaps, ingresses, services, deployments… Maybe this is more in the direction of what I’m looking for? 🤔 https://kubevela.io

Finding better motivations for software work (Other than pride)
Note: On that topic, I'm keeping a close eye on the Open Application Model and the kubevela projects. I think it’ll help write a representation of an application and its components that we can validate the structure of our code against, and generate documentation from it. Not a complete solution to the problem, but it'll help with certain parts of architecture documentation

crossplane - The Cloud Native Control Plane
kustomize - Customization of kubernetes YAML configurations
argo-cd - Declarative Continuous Deployment for Kubernetes
kapitan - Generic templated configuration management for Kubernetes, Terraform and other things
ytt - YAML templating tool that works on YAML structure instead of text
rancher - Complete container management platform
kpt - Automate Kubernetes Configuration Editing
Dokku - A docker-powered PaaS that helps you build and manage the lifecycle of applications
