To be fair, I have yet to see a single helm chart that was not a mess. Messiness is endemic to the file format (YAML) and templater (text based). Further, there are no enforced standards defining how to format ingress, service, etc configuration keys in values.yaml so every chart developer is on their own.

The qualities varies for sure.

The appsmith helm chart works out of the box, which is better than many.

My main issue is to put everything in the same stateful pod using supervisord. It doesn’t scale, I don’t want to use supervisord inside a kubernetes pod, it’s huge and slow to get ready. The helm chart does also weird things such as having a namespace définition or an autoupdate by default.

Ooh, yeah, supervisord doesn't sound like a good fit. Good catch.
