Firstly, awesome to hear you’re using bjw-s app-template helm chart. He’s my good friend and former coworker :)

I’m also doing what @[email protected] is doing.

While I don’t consider this completed yet I have posted how I’m doing things so far here

I agree with this. I think single node or not the industry is moving towards Kubernetes for container orchestration. Docker has showed their evil intentions and it’s time to leave them in the past. Even podman has native kubernetes manifest support (albeit limited last i checked) as @[email protected] pointed out there’s good avenues to take if you want to avoid the complexities of kubernetes like k3s.
