The official Terraform provider for Helm, written in Go, enabling installation and management of Helm chart releases on Kubernetes clusters through Terraform configuration. It exposes resources like helm_release to declaratively deploy charts from repositories or OCI registries.

Use cases

• deploy helm charts with terraform
• manage kubernetes releases as code
• install nginx ingress via terraform
• provision helm releases from oci registry
• declarative kubernetes app deployment

When to choose

• you already use Terraform and want Helm deployments in the same state
• you need declarative, versioned management of chart releases
• you want to deploy charts from OCI registries via IaC

When to avoid

• you prefer managing Helm releases with helm CLI or GitOps tools like Argo CD/Flux
• you don't use Terraform or Kubernetes
• you need Helm features not exposed by the provider
