Introducing Chartsmith! AI assistant for Helm chart authors. Presented by Scott Rigby, Helm Maintainer, Replicated. On June 14, for KCD Guatemala 2025, at the Porta Hotel, Antigua, Guatemala.

#kcd-guatemala was such an incredible and well put together event! I had the opportunity to speak and present on Chartsmith, a new AI assistant for writing Helm charts that @replicated.bsky.social open-sourced for the wider community

Could be Helm, could be Flux, could be co-organizing KCD New York or coming down to KCD Guatemala where I'll be in June, Scott has got so many community things going on I don't know how he keeps track of it all.

Onward!

Hey all -- this is not happening -- Slack will be comped for CNCF communities in perpetuity.
