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.

When to start adopting helm?
If you are just starting out and decide to go with writing your own Helm Charts I'd like to suggest our HULL Helm Library Chart for that purpose.
-
Getting Started with Helm
With HULL we have proposed an alternative yet Helm based solution a year ago which that tries to do it upside down by first giving you a documented Kubernetes API style full access to each objects configuration. Only on top of that it provides you further advanced options to (re)introduce abstraction into the mix - only if you need them and they actually improve your configuration. Everything takes place in the values.yaml so there is no digging around in the templates folder and everything is in view.

HULL Tutorial 01: Introducing HULL, the Helm Universal Layer Library
The HULL library Helm chart provides a single common interface to specifying Kubernetes objects within Helm Charts. The interface itself is based on the Kubernetes API schema itself which is integrated as a JSON schema in the HULL chart. Since all objects are defined directly in the values.yaml under the hull key there is no need to create and maintain custom template files when creating objects with HULL, everything happens in the values.yaml.
-
HULL Tutorial 02: Setting up a Helm Chart based on HULL
Good, now proceed by creating a new empty HULL based Helm chart. The steps are documented here but you will create it from scratch here to understand what is needed.
-
HULL Tutorial 03: Integrating ConfigMaps and Secrets
As a reminder, the goal of this tutorial series is to demonstrate how to build Helm charts based on the HULL library chart by recreating the functionality of the original kubernetes-dashboard Helm chart with a HULL based chart from scratch. When you have followed the previous part of this tutorial on setting up a HULL base chart you have created a for now unconfigured Helm chart named kubernetes-dashboard-hull in the 02_setup subfolder of your working directory (we assume that's ~/kubernetes-dashboard-hull here). You can alternatively download the current chart state here and continue from there. Also you should have checked out and extracted the kubernetes-dashboard Helm chart to kubernetes-dashboard in your working directory because examining it will be frequently required.
-
HULL Tutorial 07: Configuring Advanced Objects
the ability to specify any CustomResource as a customresource object instance. For CustomResources you additionally need to specify the kind and apiVersion besides the free form spec of your object.
-
Why is Helm considered best practice?
We have built a Helm Library chart named HULL, it provides amongst other features full access to all defined objects and their properties at creation and deployment time. Think of it as an API to specify Kubernetes objects directly in a Helm charts values.yaml. If there is some functionality you want to add or use in a particular scenario you can just configure it and the Kubernetes objects are as you actually want them to be - every aspect can always be tuned at deploy time if needed without you having to get back to the chart creator via PRs, hack the chart or similar methods. All doable with Helm and the HULL library chart, no other tooling required!

Grafana Labs' Tanka is Awesome.
We actually proposed an alternative way to solve the problem if you are Helm with our Helm library chart HULL.
-
Does anybody else find Helm charts pretty useless?
It may be worthwhile to look at the recently added examles, these are more advanced chart values.yamls from products we are deploying this way. You can see it can be pretty concise to define your applications structure with HULL in comparison.

values.schema.json ignored for values referenced in configmaps? (Helm 3)
Downsides to this is that you would have to write out the full content of your config in the values.yaml and cannot use the templating capabilities any further. Within the values.yaml no templating is allowed (unless you base your chart on this library chart we have created ;) which may be a more advanced topic if you just got started)

Getting Started with Kubernetes Questions
Spinning up workloads in kubernetes is much different than just spinning up a container in docker or even with docker compose. If someone has not already packaged it in a helm chart or some other kubernetes workload you'll have to develop one yourself. There are some nice library charts you can use as a base that should handle just about any random docker image you want to deploy. https://github.com/bjw-s/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/library/common there is also a repo of pre developed charts for common images. https://github.com/k8s-at-home/charts but be aware it was recently deprecated so it won't be receiving any updates.
-
Advice on system design best practices?
Take a look at https://github.com/k8s-at-home/charts (recently deprecated but still a fantastic resource) - there are charts for the popular Arrs , tools, etc. You could deploy each chart individually into a namespace, or you could create yourself an "umbrella" chart which pulls in all the necessary charts as dependencies.
-
With multiple custom apps, how do you manage your Helm charts?
Library charts. A very thorough example can be seen here and usages of it here.
-
Running into a problem with the k8s-at-home pod-gateway where the gateway-init container that's bootstrapping selected namespaces is unable to reach cluster DNS while pods in other namespaces can. Anyone run into this before?
Could it be related to this? https://github.com/k8s-at-home/charts/pull/1435/files

[Help!] K3s Sonarr failing with X509CertificateValidationService due to expired LetsEncrypt cert in Mono
I know /u/stefantigro means well but the way you are both doing the helm charts is not ideal, helm charts are meant to be shared, not as a means to install apps into your cluster from a local folder. While they can be, it's not a good pattern. Take the helm chart from here for example. This is a published helm chart you can install using the commands in the Readme and you only need to provide the configuration for your instance from the values.yaml file. You can take a look at the values I use for this helm chart here. You can also see I'm using an custom Sonarr image, this image is tailored to running in Kubernetes

Bounty for Homebridge TrueChart
There is a working Helm chart for k8s-at-home that should be a good starting point. The biggest hurdle I see is that homebridge can conflict with SCALE's mDNS service as seen in this linked post.
