A helm chart to help ease deployment on kubernetes clusters. At the moment it's only designed to run as a single "node" but will work on adding horizontal scaling in time. Thought others might find it a useful.

I am fairly new to creating helm charts, so feel free to comment, critique, or contribute!

You might want to avoid reimplementing deploying known - and complex - components like postgres, it's better to grab such things as a dependency from someone who's already done so.

It's also quite suboptimal to store secrets - like the postgres password and such - in a ConfigMap, and requiring the user to manually create objects in order to be able to deploy your chart is also a major hurdle towards actually using it.

I wrote my own Helm Chart for lemmy as well, not really finished with it either though as I want to make the deployment safer, and also better support gitops.
