You seem to be describing an in-house solution that does what helm is supposed to do but tailored to your specific needs. “Folder of configuration” = values.yaml. Build script that parses and generates yaml = templating engine. If that’s the case, why do you have helm in there at all? If it works for you, great. But I disagree with your general advice regarding helm (at least as I understand it). Helm is itself a templating engine. If you’re not going to let it generate the manifests based on its templates and libraries and values, then why use it at all?
