My experiences with k8s have led me to never propose k8s in a new project. The k8s instances I have seen were bureaucratic and technical nightmares of unnecessary complexity. It doesn't provide a common ground for deployments because everyone will use and configure it differently.

Helm charts are used by 99% of the open source projects I've seen that run on top of Kubernetes. They are all written in a similar style so transferring settings between them is fairly easy. Helm will even create a barebones chart for you automatically in the common style.

A helm chart is not a complete deployment system, it's just a wrapper around kubectl. Neither provides everything you need to completely manage deploys.
