- Create reproducible builds of your Kubernetes applications
- Intelligently manage your Kubernetes manifest files
- Manage releases of Helm packages
## Helm in a Handbasket
Helm is a tool that streamlines installing and managing Kubernetes applications.
Think of it like apt/yum/homebrew for Kubernetes.
Removed inaccurate statement re library (#6771) This PR is a self-admitted exercise in pedantry. The previous wording suggested a distinction between the Helm client and Helm library, but from a user perspective the usage of the library is hidden. As a user, I use the Helm client to render my templates and communicate with k8s, so mentioning the library in this section reduces clarity. Signed-off-by: Mike Ryan <mike@fadedink.co.uk>

- Helm runs on your laptop, CI/CD, or wherever you want it to run.
- Charts are Helm packages that contain at least two things:
- A description of the package (`Chart.yaml`)
- One or more templates, which contain Kubernetes manifest files
- Charts can be stored on disk, or fetched from remote chart repositories
(like Debian or RedHat packages)

## Helm Development and Stable Versions
Helm v4 is currently under development on the `main` branch. This is unstable and the APIs within the Go SDK and at the command line are changing.
Helm v3 (current stable) is maintained on the `dev-v3` branch. APIs there follow semantic versioning.
docs(README): remove the build from source instructions docs/developers.md already has these instructions. And 80% of the time someone looking at this project is interested in getting started not hacking directly.

The development of Helm v4 is currently happening on the `main` branch while the development of Helm v3, the stable branch, is happening on the `dev-v3` branch. Changes should be made to the `main` branch prior to being added to the `dev-v3` branch so that all changes are carried along to Helm v4.
