I never understood why people didn’t serialize from JSON if they run a transformation step on the YAML anyway. Read JSON, alter in your favorite language, dump YAML as the last step, deploy. Instant prevention of a lot of sadness.

Yet somehow, all we have is YAML templating?

Kubectl will handle JSON without converting it to YAML. So if you are doing this, then just do kubectl apply -f deployment.json

So why doesn't helm output to json instead of yaml, and avoid all the problems with significant whitespace?
