## What it is
Konstellate is a free, open-source GUI for visualizing, creating, and editing Kubernetes resources and their relationships. It lets users build complex YAML visually and export it as Helm charts or Kustomize templates.

## Use cases
- visualize kubernetes application architecture
- create kubernetes yaml without writing it by hand
- generate helm charts from a visual diagram
- build kustomize overlays visually
- import existing kubernetes yaml and edit it in a gui
- connect kubernetes resources like services and deployments visually

## When to avoid
- you need active maintenance or support - the project has not been updated since 2019
- you want to connect to a live running cluster or use kubectl integration
- you need a packaged desktop or docker install - it only runs from source with Clojure
- you require importing existing Helm charts or Kustomize files, which is unimplemented
