@sophie Big Yaml doesn't want us to know this but a surprisingly large number of things can be done with the nixos module system. this one has built a very minimal nixos to ansible converter already, and this would work with kuwubernetes too (albeit with less existing infrastructure (haha) to do that like ansible has)
@lexi honestly no, this one doesn't want to convert stuff because this would be nix stuff to generate a helm chart which is then deployed somewhere. this absolutely would not reduce the complexity at all (and also not address any of the problems kubernetes has)
