The de facto package manager for Kubernetes - packages, templates, and versions a whole application's manifests as one installable chart.
Where helm fits, based on its real tags and topics.

Helm is a tool for managing Charts. Charts are packages of pre-configured Kubernetes resources.
- Find and use popular software packaged as Helm Charts to run in Kubernetes - Share your own applications as Helm Charts - Create reproducible builds of your Kubernetes applications - Intelligently manage your Kubernetes manifest files - Manage releases of Helm packages

“The default choice for production React today - server components, file-based routing, and first-class deployment story make it the fastest path from idea to shipped app.”
The Postgres development platform. Supabase gives you a dedicated Postgres database to build your web, mobile, and AI applications.
“A genuinely open-source Firebase alternative - real Postgres underneath, with auth, storage, and realtime built in rather than a proprietary database.”
“Utility-first CSS that's become the default styling approach for new projects - fast to write, easy to keep consistent, no dead CSS to prune later.”
Find vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, secrets, SBOM in containers, Kubernetes, code repositories, clouds and more
“A fast, all-in-one vulnerability scanner - containers, filesystems, git repos, and Terraform/IaC misconfigurations all covered by one CLI tool.”
“The industry-standard container orchestrator - not always necessary at small scale, but the default assumption for any serious cloud-native platform team.”
“The standard tool for infrastructure-as-code across every major cloud provider - one declarative language instead of provider-specific consoles or scripts.”
“A full-featured service mesh - real power for large microservice fleets, though it's genuinely overkill below a certain scale.”
“The community-governed, truly open-source continuation of Terraform's original license - worth knowing if vendor lock-in on your infrastructure tooling is a real concern.”
“Turns cloud infrastructure into Kubernetes-native resources - powerful for platform teams building an internal developer platform on top of K8s.”
“An eBPF-based networking layer for Kubernetes that's become the default choice for teams that outgrow basic CNI plugins - genuinely changes what's possible for cluster networking and security.”
“The most capable open-source relational database available - strong standards compliance, extensions for nearly everything (including full-text search and vectors), and a default choice for good reason.”
“Unifies dozens of LLM providers behind a single API, making model switching almost effortless in production.”
“The standard library for working with open-weight models - thousands of pretrained models are one line of code away.”
“The modern default frontend build tool - native ESM in dev means a dev server that starts and reloads almost instantly, even on large apps.”
“The open-source engine behind Docker - understanding containers here pays off no matter which orchestrator sits on top later.”
“The most widely adopted framework for chaining LLM calls, tools, and retrieval into real applications - a near-default starting point for RAG and agent projects.”
