And use the Helm templates (instead of Kustomize) to generate the standard Antrea YAML manifests (which are checked-in and uploaded as release assets). Standard manifests are generated based on Helm values files located under build/yamls/chart-values/, using a new script (./hack/generate-standard-manifests.sh). It is much faster than the old version. While I believe that using Helm directly and specifying YAML values whenever a new manifest needs to be generated would be better, the ./hack/generate-manifest.sh script is kept as-is, but it now uses Helm instead of Kustomize. Documentation for the Helm chart is autogenerated using helm-docs. In a future PR, we will look into the release process for the Helm chart. After that, Helm charts could be added for Antrea components (Flow Aggregator, Flow visibility). For antrea-io#2641 Signed-off-by: Antonin Bas <[email protected]>

This issue is not resolved yet, there are still several changes required in order for the Helm chart to be usable by Antrea users. |

For each Antrea release, we generate the correct Helm chart archive and upload it as a release asset. The appropriate index.yaml file (Helm repo index) will be updated appropriately (in the antrea-io/website repository) and will be accessible through charts.antrea.io and / or antrea.io/charts. For antrea-io#2641 We are also moving all CRD resources from the generic templates/ directory to the special crds/ directory, in the Chart definition. This will cause Helm to treat CRDs as special resources, and in particular they will never be upgraded / deleted automatically by Helm. In particular, for upgrade, users will need to apply a separate YAML (which is being added to release assets) including all the CRD resource definitions. This represents an extra step, but ensures that users are aware that CRDs are being upgraded which may require some actions from them (e.g., migrate to a new version) and needs to be done with caution.

Describe the problem/challenge you have
Helm chart is a popular way to package kubernetes apps, maybe we can support helm chart to allow some users with chart
experiences to eaily adapt antrea project.
Describe the solution you'd like
Provide helm chart with each release and publish it to officail helm chart repo
Anything else you would like to add?
Besides as an alternative way to distribute antrea, i'm not sure helm chart can provide additional features. Possible enhencement are:
