Similar to:

I think it makes sense for us to consider something like what sourcegraph-server-gen was in the past, but in the form of:

src k8s config.yaml -> generates deploy-sourcegraph/base but with modifications

I'm not saying we need to do this in 3.17, currently, just that I think considering this alongside Cue and Dhall makes sense. Thoughts @ggilmore?

@slimsag I think this is a valid alternative for us to explore. I won't have time in 3.17 to look into this however (unless we have some a priori reasoning that Cue or Dhall won't meet our needs)

[ggilmore]

This might also take longer than the three day estimate since we'd developing this system from scratch

From what I understand we no longer plan on investigating this route, closing.
