How is the file and component structure organized in a Helm chart?

A Helm chart is a package for Kubernetes that contains all the necessary files to deploy an application. The structure of a typical Helm chart looks like this:

• Chart.yaml — the main file with chart metadata (name, version, description).
• values.yaml — a file with default settings that can be overridden during installation.
• templates/ — a directory with Kubernetes manifest templates written using Go templates. It describes resources like Deployment, Service, ConfigMap, and others.
• charts/ — a folder for dependencies (subcharts).
• templates/_helpers.tpl — a file with definitions of helper templates.
• README.md — chart documentation.

Example structure:

mychart/
  Chart.yaml
  values.yaml
  charts/
  templates/
    deployment.yaml
    service.yaml
    _helpers.tpl
  README.md

This approach allows for convenient management of configurations and templates for Kubernetes applications.
