terraform-provider-k8s

Deploys any Kubernetes resource using YAML or JSON via the `k8s_manifest` resource, enabling seamless use of custom resources and existing manifests without schema limitations, as demonstrated in the nginx deployment example.

Supports Helm workflows by templating charts into manifests for Terraform application, allowing teams to bridge Helm and Terraform, with clear examples for both Helm 2 and 3 in the README.

Offers multiple authentication methods including kubeconfig files, in-cluster service accounts, and static credentials, matching Kubernetes-native tools for easy adoption in various environments.

Integrates with Terraform's plan, apply, and destroy cycles, providing familiar infrastructure-as-code management for Kubernetes, shown in the terminal output examples for updates and teardowns.
