## What it is
A collection of modern Grafana dashboards for monitoring Kubernetes clusters, built on kube-state-metrics and prometheus-node-exporter data. It supports multiple installation methods including grafana.com, Helm, ArgoCD, ConfigMaps, Terraform, and Grafana Operator.

## Use cases
- monitor kubernetes cluster health in grafana
- visualize pod and node metrics from prometheus
- set up kubernetes observability dashboards
- import prebuilt grafana dashboards for kube-prometheus-stack
- track node resource usage with node-exporter metrics
- deploy dashboards as configmaps via terraform or argocd

## When to choose
- you run kube-prometheus-stack and want ready-made, modern kubernetes dashboards
- you want dashboards installable via helm, argocd, terraform, or grafana operator
- you use a recent grafana version and want gradient/time-series features

## When to avoid
- you run an older grafana version lacking newer panel features
- your cluster runs windows nodes
- you need fully custom dashboards rather than curated presets

## Facets
