## What is Helm?

Helm helps you manage Kubernetes applications — Helm Charts help you define, install, and upgrade even the most complex Kubernetes application.

Charts are easy to create, version, share, and publish — so start using Helm and stop the copy-and-paste.

Helm is a graduated project in the [CNCF](https://cncf.io/) and is maintained by the [Helm community](https://github.com/helm/community).

Manage Complexity

Charts describe even the most complex apps, provide repeatable application installation, and serve as a single point of authority.

Easy Updates

Take the pain out of updates with in-place upgrades and custom hooks.

Simple Sharing

Charts are easy to version, share, and host on public or private servers.

Rollbacks

Use `helm rollback` to roll back to an older version of a release with ease.
