A universal Helm Chart for deploying applications into K8s/OpenShift

In plain words

nxs-universal-chart is an open-source Helm chart for deploying applications to Kubernetes, OpenShift, and compatible orchestrators. It eliminates the need to create separate charts for similar applications by providing a single, configurable template that works across multiple projects. Designed for teams managing numerous identical or near-identical microservices, it simplifies CI/CD preparation and reduces deployment setup time.

The Helm chart you can use to install any of your applications into Kubernetes/OpenShift - nixys/nxs-universal-chart

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hey HN! We wanted to share with you nxs-universal-chart - our open-sourced universal Helm chart. You can use it to deploy any of your applications into Kubernetes/OpenShift and other orchestrators compatible with native Kubernetes API. Our team regularly faced the need to create almost identical charts, so when…

  Glasskube – Open Source Kubernetes Package Manager, alternative to Helm2024 · github.com · ▲266

  Hello HN, we're Philip and Louis from Glasskube (https://github.com/glasskube/glasskube). We're working on an open-source package manager for Kubernetes. It's an alternative to tools like Helm or Kustomize, primarily focused on making deploying, updating, and configuring Kubernetes packages simpler and a lot faster. Here is a demo video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIeTHGWsG2c#t=17s) with quick start instructions. Most developers working with Kubernetes use Helm, an open-source tool created during a hackathon nine years ago. However, with the rapid…

  Chart Preview – Preview environments for Helm charts on every PRDec 2025 · chart-preview.com · ▲22

  I’m a software engineer who accidentally became my team’s Kubernetes person — and eventually the bottleneck for every Helm chart PR. I built Chart Preview so reviewers could see Helm chart changes running without waiting on me. A few years ago, my team needed to implement HA for an existing product, which meant deploying on Kubernetes and OpenShift. I spent months learning Kubernetes, Helm, and the surrounding ecosystem. After that, Kubernetes largely became “my thing” on the team. We later published public Helm charts for the product, and customers started submitting PRs. Those PRs would…

  Github Link: https://github.com/devtron-labs/helm-ui Helm is one of the most adopted package managers for deploying applications to Kubernetes. The intuitive Helm Dashboard offers a UI-driven approach for managing the lifecycle of Helm Applications, abstracting out all the complexities and challenges. Through the dashboard, one can: 1. Manage community and custom helm charts 2. See manifest diff of past revisions 3. Easily rollback or upgrade between different versions 4.

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
