quickstart: mix-in argocd application resource

Users need to customize the default behavior of the core components,
like the Helm schema wrapper to mix-in an ArgoCD Application resource to
each component.  This patch wires up #Helm in the holos package to
schema.#Helm from the v1alpha3 api.

The result is illustrated in the Quickstart documentation, it is now
simple for users to modify the definition of a Helm component such that
Application resources are mixed in to every component in the platform.

+      source, and configuration files.
+
+      "Object" form shall mean any form resulting from mechanical
+      transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
+      not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
+      and conversions to other media types.
+
+      "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
+      Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
+      copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
+      (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
+
+      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
+      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
+      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
+      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
+      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
+      separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
+      the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
+
+      "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
+      the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
+      to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
+      submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
+      or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
+      the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
+      means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent
+      to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to
+      communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems,

+      Licensor for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but
+      excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise
+      designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
+
+      "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
+      on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
+      subsequently incorporated within the Work.
+
+   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
+      publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
+      Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
+
+   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
+      use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
+      where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
+      by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
+      Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
+      with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
+      institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
+      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
+      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:
+
+      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
+          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
+
+      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
+          stating that You changed the files; and
+
+      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
+
+   END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+   APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work.

+## Holos - A Holistic Development Platform
+
+<img width="50%"
+align="right"
+style="display: block; margin: 40px auto;"
+src="https://openinfrastructure.co/blog/2016/02/27/logo/logorectangle.png">
+
+Building and maintaining a software development platform is a complex and time
+consuming endeavour.  Organizations often dedicate a team of 3-4 who need 6-12
+months to build the platform.
+
+Holos is a tool and a reference platform to reduce the complexity and speed up
+the process of building a modern, cloud native software development platform.
+
+- **Accelerate new projects** - Reduce time to market and operational complexity by starting your new project on top of the Holos reference platform.
+- **Modernize existing projects** - Incrementally incorporate your existing platform services into Holos for simpler integration.
+- **Unified configuration model** - Increase safety and reduce the risk of config changes with CUE.
+- **First class Helm and Kustomize support** - Leverage and reuse your existing investment in existing configuration tools such as Helm and Kustomize.
+- **Modern Authentication and Authorization** - Holos seamlessly integrates platform identity and access management with zero-trust beyond corp style authorization policy.
+
+## Quick Installation
+
+```console
+go install github.com/holos-run/holos/cmd/holos@latest
+```
+
+## Docs and Support
+
+The documentation for developing and using Holos is available at: https://holos.run
+
+For discussion and support, [open a discussion](https://github.com/orgs/holos-run/discussions/new/choose).

+
+Package v1alpha2 contains the core API contract between the holos cli and CUE configuration code. Platform designers, operators, and software developers use this API to write configuration in CUE which \`holos\` loads. The overall shape of the API defines imperative actions \`holos\` should carry out to render the complete yaml that represents a Platform.
+
+[Platform](<#Platform>) defines the complete configuration of a platform. With the holos reference platform this takes the shape of one management cluster and at least two workload cluster. Each cluster has multiple [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>) resources applied to it.
+
+Each holos component path, e.g. \`components/namespaces\` produces exactly one [BuildPlan](<#BuildPlan>) which in turn contains a set of [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>) kinds.
+
+The primary kinds of [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>) are:
+
+1. [HelmChart](<#HelmChart>) to render config from a helm chart.
+2. [KustomizeBuild](<#KustomizeBuild>) to render config from [Kustomize](<#Kustomize>)
+3. [KubernetesObjects](<#KubernetesObjects>) to render [APIObjects](<#APIObjects>) defined directly in CUE configuration.
+
+Note that Holos operates as a data pipeline, so the output of a [HelmChart](<#HelmChart>) may be provided to [Kustomize](<#Kustomize>) for post\-processing.

+
+<a name="APIObject"></a>
+## type APIObject {#APIObject}
+
+APIObject represents the most basic generic form of a single kubernetes api object. Represented as a JSON object internally for compatibility between tools, for example loading from CUE.
+
+```go
+type APIObject structpb.Struct
+```
+
+<a name="APIObjectMap"></a>
+## type APIObjectMap {#APIObjectMap}
+
+APIObjectMap represents the marshalled yaml representation of kubernetes api objects. Do not produce an APIObjectMap directly, instead use [APIObjects](<#APIObjects>) to produce the marshalled yaml representation from CUE data, then provide the result to [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>).
+
+```go
+type APIObjectMap map[Kind]map[Label]string
+```
+
+<a name="APIObjects"></a>
+## type APIObjects {#APIObjects}
+
+APIObjects represents Kubernetes API objects defined directly from CUE code. Useful to mix in resources to any kind of [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>), for example adding an ExternalSecret resource to a [HelmChart](<#HelmChart>).
+
+[Kind](<#Kind>) must be the resource kind, e.g. Deployment or Service.
+
+[Label](<#Label>) is an arbitrary internal identifier to uniquely identify the resource within the context of a \`holos\` command. Holos will never write the intermediate label to rendered output.
+
+Refer to [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>) which accepts an [APIObjectMap](<#APIObjectMap>) field provided by [APIObjects](<#APIObjects>).
+
+```go
+type APIObjects struct {
+    APIObjects   map[Kind]map[Label]APIObject `json:"apiObjects"`
+    APIObjectMap APIObjectMap                 `json:"apiObjectMap"`
+}
+```
+
+<a name="BuildPlan"></a>
+## type BuildPlan {#BuildPlan}
+
+BuildPlan represents a build plan for the holos cli to execute. The purpose of a BuildPlan is to define one or more [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>) kinds. For example a [HelmChart](<#HelmChart>), [KustomizeBuild](<#KustomizeBuild>), or [KubernetesObjects](<#KubernetesObjects>).
+
+A BuildPlan usually has an additional empty [KubernetesObjects](<#KubernetesObjects>) for the purpose of using the [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>) DeployFiles field to deploy an ArgoCD or Flux gitops resource for the holos component.
+
+```go
+type BuildPlan struct {
+    Kind       string        `json:"kind" cue:"\"BuildPlan\""`

+}
+```
+
+<a name="Chart"></a>
+## type Chart {#Chart}
+
+Chart represents a helm chart.
+
+```go
+type Chart struct {
+    // Name represents the chart name.
+    Name string `json:"name"`
+    // Version represents the chart version.
+    Version string `json:"version"`

+    Repository Repository `json:"repository,omitempty"`
+}
+```
+
+<a name="FileContent"></a>

+
+FileContent represents file contents.
+
+```go
+type FileContent string
+```
+
+<a name="FileContentMap"></a>
+## type FileContentMap {#FileContentMap}
+
+FileContentMap represents a mapping of file paths to file contents. Paths are relative to the \`holos\` output "deploy" directory, and may contain sub\-directories.
+
+```go
+type FileContentMap map[FilePath]FileContent
+```
+
+<a name="FilePath"></a>
+## type FilePath {#FilePath}
+
+FilePath represents a file path.
+
+```go
+type FilePath string
+```
+
+<a name="HelmChart"></a>
+## type HelmChart {#HelmChart}
+
+HelmChart represents a holos component which wraps around an upstream helm chart. Holos orchestrates helm by providing values obtained from CUE, renders the output using \`helm template\`, then post\-processes the helm output yaml using the general functionality provided by [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>), for example [Kustomize](<#Kustomize>) post\-rendering and mixing in additional kubernetes api objects.
+
+```go
+type HelmChart struct {
+    HolosComponent `json:",inline"`

+}
+```
+
+<a name="HolosComponent"></a>
+## type HolosComponent {#HolosComponent}
+
+HolosComponent defines the fields common to all holos component kinds. Every holos component kind should embed HolosComponent.
+
+```go
+type HolosComponent struct {

+
+Kind is a kubernetes api object kind. Defined as a type for clarity and type checking.
+
+```go
+type Kind string
+```
+
+<a name="KubernetesObjects"></a>
+## type KubernetesObjects {#KubernetesObjects}
+
+KubernetesObjects represents a [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>) composed of Kubernetes API objects provided directly from CUE using [APIObjects](<#APIObjects>).
+
+```go
+type KubernetesObjects struct {
+    HolosComponent `json:",inline"`
+    Kind           string `json:"kind" cue:"\"KubernetesObjects\""`
+}
+```
+
+<a name="Kustomize"></a>
+## type Kustomize {#Kustomize}
+
+Kustomize represents resources necessary to execute a kustomize build. Intended for at least two use cases:
+
+1. Process a [KustomizeBuild](<#KustomizeBuild>) [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>) which represents raw yaml file resources in a holos component directory.
+2. Post process a [HelmChart](<#HelmChart>) [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>) to inject istio, patch jobs, add custom labels, etc...
+
+```go
+type Kustomize struct {

+    ResourcesFile string `json:"resourcesFile,omitempty"`
+}
+```
+
+<a name="KustomizeBuild"></a>
+## type KustomizeBuild {#KustomizeBuild}
+
+KustomizeBuild represents a [HolosComponent](<#HolosComponent>) that renders plain yaml files in the holos component directory using \`kubectl kustomize build\`.
+
+```go
+type KustomizeBuild struct {

+
+<a name="Label"></a>
+## type Label {#Label}
+
+Label is an arbitrary unique identifier internal to holos itself. The holos cli is expected to never write a Label value to rendered output files, therefore use a [Label](<#Label>) then the identifier must be unique and internal. Defined as a type for clarity and type checking.
+
+A Label is useful to convert a CUE struct to a list, for example producing a list of [APIObject](<#APIObject>) resources from an [APIObjectMap](<#APIObjectMap>). A CUE struct using Label keys is guaranteed to not lose data when rendering output because a Label is expected to never be written to the final output.
+
+```go
+type Label string
+```
+
+<a name="Metadata"></a>
+## type Metadata {#Metadata}
+
+Metadata represents data about the holos component such as the Name.
+
+```go
+type Metadata struct {
+    // Name represents the name of the holos component.
+    Name string `json:"name"`
+    // Namespace is the primary namespace of the holos component.  A holos
+    // component may manage resources in multiple namespaces, in this case
+    // consider setting the component namespace to default.
+    //
+    // This field is optional because not all resources require a namespace,
+    // particularly CRD's and DeployFiles functionality.
+    // +optional
+    Namespace string `json:"namespace,omitempty"`
+}
+```
+
+<a name="Platform"></a>
+## type Platform {#Platform}
+
+Platform represents a platform to manage. A Platform resource informs holos which components to build. The platform resource also acts as a container for the platform model form values provided by the PlatformService. The primary use case is to collect the cluster names, cluster types, platform model, and holos components to build into one resource.
+
+```go
+type Platform struct {
+    // Kind is a string value representing the resource this object represents.
+    Kind string `json:"kind" cue:"\"Platform\""`
+    // APIVersion represents the versioned schema of this representation of an object.

+}
+```
+
+<a name="PlatformSpec"></a>
+## type PlatformSpec {#PlatformSpec}
+
+PlatformSpec represents the specification of a Platform. Think of a platform specification as a list of platform components to apply to a list of kubernetes clusters combined with the user\-specified Platform Model.
+
+```go
+type PlatformSpec struct {
+    // Model represents the platform model holos gets from from the
+    // PlatformService.GetPlatform rpc method and provides to CUE using a tag.

+```go
+import "github.com/holos-run/holos/api/core/v1alpha3"
+```
+
+Package v1alpha3 contains the core API contract between the holos cli and CUE configuration code. Platform designers, operators, and software developers use this API to write configuration in CUE which \`holos\` loads. The overall shape of the API defines imperative actions \`holos\` should carry out to render the complete yaml that represents a Platform.
+
+[Platform](<#Platform>) defines the complete configuration of a platform. With the holos reference platform this takes the shape of one management cluster and at least two workload cluster. Each cluster has multiple [Component](<#Component>) resources applied to it.
+
+Each holos component path, e.g. \`components/namespaces\` produces exactly one [BuildPlan](<#BuildPlan>) which in turn contains a set of [Component](<#Component>) kinds.
+
+The primary kinds of [Component](<#Component>) are:
+
+1. [HelmChart](<#HelmChart>) to render config from a helm chart.
+2. [KustomizeBuild](<#KustomizeBuild>) to render config from [Kustomize](<#Kustomize>)
+3. [KubernetesObjects](<#KubernetesObjects>) to render [APIObjects](<#APIObjects>) defined directly in CUE configuration.
+
+Note that Holos operates as a data pipeline, so the output of a [HelmChart](<#HelmChart>) may be provided to [Kustomize](<#Kustomize>) for post\-processing.

+## type APIObject {#APIObject}
+
+APIObject represents the most basic generic form of a single kubernetes api object. Represented as a JSON object internally for compatibility between tools, for example loading from CUE.
+
+```go
+type APIObject structpb.Struct
+```
+
+<a name="APIObjectMap"></a>
+## type APIObjectMap {#APIObjectMap}
+
+APIObjectMap represents the marshalled yaml representation of kubernetes api objects. Do not produce an APIObjectMap directly, instead use [APIObjects](<#APIObjects>) to produce the marshalled yaml representation from CUE data, then provide the result to [Component](<#Component>).
+
+```go
+type APIObjectMap map[Kind]map[InternalLabel]string
+```
+
+<a name="APIObjects"></a>
+## type APIObjects {#APIObjects}
+
+APIObjects represents Kubernetes API objects defined directly from CUE code. Useful to mix in resources to any kind of [Component](<#Component>), for example adding an ExternalSecret resource to a [HelmChart](<#HelmChart>).
+
+[Kind](<#Kind>) must be the resource kind, e.g. Deployment or Service.
+
+[InternalLabel](<#InternalLabel>) is an arbitrary internal identifier to uniquely identify the resource within the context of a \`holos\` command. Holos will never write the intermediate label to rendered output.
+
+Refer to [Component](<#Component>) which accepts an [APIObjectMap](<#APIObjectMap>) field provided by [APIObjects](<#APIObjects>).

+
+<a name="BuildPlan"></a>
+## type BuildPlan {#BuildPlan}
+
+BuildPlan represents a build plan for the holos cli to execute. The purpose of a BuildPlan is to define one or more [Component](<#Component>) kinds. For example a [HelmChart](<#HelmChart>), [KustomizeBuild](<#KustomizeBuild>), or [KubernetesObjects](<#KubernetesObjects>).
+
+A BuildPlan usually has an additional empty [KubernetesObjects](<#KubernetesObjects>) for the purpose of using the [Component](<#Component>) DeployFiles field to deploy an ArgoCD or Flux gitops resource for the holos component.

+
+<a name="HelmChart"></a>
+## type HelmChart {#HelmChart}
+
+HelmChart represents a holos component which wraps around an upstream helm chart. Holos orchestrates helm by providing values obtained from CUE, renders the output using \`helm template\`, then post\-processes the helm output yaml using the general functionality provided by [Component](<#Component>), for example [Kustomize](<#Kustomize>) post\-rendering and mixing in additional kubernetes api objects.
+
+```go

+}
+```
+
+<a name="InternalLabel"></a>
+## type InternalLabel {#InternalLabel}
+
+InternalLabel is an arbitrary unique identifier internal to holos itself. The holos cli is expected to never write a InternalLabel value to rendered output files, therefore use a [InternalLabel](<#InternalLabel>) when the identifier must be unique and internal. Defined as a type for clarity and type checking.
+
+A InternalLabel is useful to convert a CUE struct to a list, for example producing a list of [APIObject](<#APIObject>) resources from an [APIObjectMap](<#APIObjectMap>). A CUE struct using InternalLabel keys is guaranteed to not lose data when rendering output because a InternalLabel is expected to never be written to the final output.

+Kustomize represents resources necessary to execute a kustomize build. Intended for at least two use cases:
+
+1. Process a [KustomizeBuild](<#KustomizeBuild>) [Component](<#Component>) which represents raw yaml file resources in a holos component directory.
+2. Post process a [HelmChart](<#HelmChart>) [Component](<#Component>) to inject istio, patch jobs, add custom labels, etc...
+
+```go

+Platform represents a platform to manage. A Platform resource informs holos which components to build. The platform resource also acts as a container for the platform model form values provided by the PlatformService. The primary use case is to collect the cluster names, cluster types, platform model, and holos components to build into one resource.

+# Backstory
+
+Holos is a tool intended to lighten the burden of managing Kubernetes resources.  In 2020 we set out to develop a holistic platform composed from open source cloud native components.  We quickly became frustrated with how each of the major components packaged and distributed their software in a different way.  Many projects choose to distribute their software with Helm charts, while others provide plain yaml files and Kustomize bases.  The popular Kube Prometheus Stack project provides Jsonnet to render and update Kubernetes yaml manifests.

+3. Holos prioritizes composition over abstraction.
+4. An abstraction of an Application acts as a filter that removes all but the lowest common denominator functionality.  The Holos Authors have found this filtering effect to create excessive friction for software developers.
+5. Holos focuses instead on composition to empower developers and platform engineers to leverage the unique features and functionality of their software and platform.

+# Concepts
+
+## Introduction
+
+This page is intended as a high level conceptual overview of the key concepts in
+Holos.  Refer to the [Core API](/docs/api/core/) for low level reference
+documentation.
+
+Holos is a tool built for platform engineers.  The Holos authors share three
+core values which guide our design decisions for the tool.
+
+1. Safety
+2. Ease of use
+3. Consistency
+
+Each of the following concepts are intended to support and strengthen one or
+more of these core values.  In this way we hope to lighten the burden carried by
+platform engineers.
+
+## Concepts
+
+- [Component](<#component>) - The primary building block in Holos, wraps a Helm chart, Kustomize base, or plain resources defined in CUE.
+- [Platform](<#platform>) - A collection of Components integrated into a software development platform.
+- [Model](<#model>) - Structured data included in the Platform specification, available to all Components.  For example, your organization's domain name.
+- [Rendering](<#rendering>) - Holos is a tool that makes the process of rendering Kubernetes manifests safer, easier, and consistent.

+
+
+## Component
+
+A Component is the primary building block when managing software with Holos.  A
+software project you wish to integrate into your platform, for example ArgoCD,
+is managed using one or more components.
+
+The primary Component kinds are:
+
+1. **HelmChart** to render config provided by Helm.
+2. **KustomizeBuild** to render config provided by Kustomize.
+3. **KubernetesObjects** to render config provided by CUE.
+
+Components are intended to integrate unmodified upstream software releases into
+your Platform.  In this way, the focus of a Component is more about the unique
+differentiating aspects of your platform than the upstream software contained in
+the Component.
+
+#### Example HelmChart Component
+
+The ArgoCD Component is a good example of a HelmChart component because it takes
+advantage of most of the key features that empower you to focus on the key
+differentiators of your unique platform.
+
+Take note of the following key points in this example ArgoCD Component:
+
+1. The Component wraps the ArgoCD Helm Chart in a way that's easy to upgrade and maintain over time.
+2. Newer Gateway API resources are mixed-in replacing the older Ingress resource included in the chart.
+3. Helm output is passed through Kustomize to configure secure mutual TLS encryption.
+4. Helm values are easier and safer to manipulate with CUE instead of text markup.
+5. Kustomize is easier and safer to manipulate with CUE instead of text markup.
+6. Platform data Model values are easily accessible, for example the OIDC issuer and the organizations's domain name.
+
+The Component wraps around the unmodified upstream ArgoCD helm chart
+providing easier upgrades as new versions are released.
+
+Note how the Component facilitates composition by allowing us to mix-in new
+functionality from the ecosystem without modifying the upstream chart.  The
+Platform this Component integrates with uses the new Gateway API, but the
+upstream helm chart does not yet support Gateway API.  See how the Resources
+field is used to mix-in a ReferenceGrant from the Gateway API without modifying
+the upstream helm chart.
+
+The Platform uses Istio to implement service to service encryption with mutual
+TLS.  The Component passes the Helm output to Kustomize to integrate with Istio.
+Kustomize is used to patch the argocd-server Deployment resource to inject the
+Istio sidecar for mutual TLS.
+
+Helm values are safer and easier to work with in CUE.  Note how you can modify
+helm values using well defined data instead of manipulating text yaml files.
+Similarly, the yaml files used for Kustomize are produced by CUE, which is again
+safer and easier because the Kustomize spec has been imported into CUE and is
+validated.
+
+Finally, the domain name used by this Platform is easily accessible from the
+PlatformSpec which is defined at the root level and made available to all
+components integrated into the platform.  Similarly, data values shared by all
+of the Components that make up ArgoCD is defined in a structure accessible by
+each of these components.

+
+## Platform
+
+A Platform refers to all of the software and services integrated together to
+provide your organization's software development platform.  Holos is designed to
+manage all of the resources that compose your Platform using the [Kubernetes
+Resource Model][krm] (KRM).  Nearly all platforms are larger than Kubernetes
+itself.  For example, your developers likely need a GCS or S3 bucket to store
+data.  Holos takes advantage of Crossplane to manage resources in a consistent
+way.
+
+Holos defines a [Platform][Platform] object which collects multiple Components
+together along with organizational data defined by your Model.  Consider the
+following example, which is a Platform that manages a single Component which
+manages namespaces for each cluster in the Platform.
+
+```cue
+package holos
+
+import v1 "github.com/holos-run/holos/api/v1alpha2"
+
+v1.#Platform & {
+	metadata: name: "example"
+
+	spec: components: [{
+		path:    "components/namespaces"
+		cluster: "cluster1"
+	}]
+}
+```
+
+This platform is rendered by the command:
+
+```bash
+holos render platform ./platform
+```
+
+When Holos renders the platform, it iterates over each component, generates and
+executes a [BuildPlan][BuildPlan], then writes the fully rendered output of the
+component to the filesystem.  In this simple example, two files are produced:
+
+1. `deploy/clusters/cluster1/components/namespaces/namespaces.gen.yaml`
+2. `deploy/clusters/cluster1/gitops/namespaces.application.gen.yaml`
+
+The first file is a plain kubernetes manifest containing Namespace resources.
+The second file is an ArgoCD Application resource to deploy and manage the
+resources defined in the first file.
+
+## Model
+
+The Platform Model is where you store top-level data values used throughout
+multiple components in your Platform.  Your organization's domain name is a
+prime example of the kind of data stored in the Model.  Many components derive
+host names from your organization's domain name.  CUE makes this process safe,
+easy, and consistent.  For example:
+
+```cue
+hostname: "argocd.\(_Platform.Model.org.domain)"
+```
+
+When Holos renders a Platform, the model is loaded from a JSON file in the local
+filesystem.  The platform model file is intended to be committed to version
+control along with the rest of the Holos Platform and Component code.
+
+Holos additionally provides a web ui and form to make it easy to enter and
+validate top level configuration data.  You have complete control over the web
+form, it's rendered from JSON data defined by CUE.  Customizing the web form is
+an advanced topic, the key concept to take away is the Model is for top level,
+platform-wide data.  You control the shape and structure of the Model, and you
+have the ability to collect Model values using a simple web form.
+
+## Rendering
+
+Holos uses the Kubernetes resource model to manage configuration.  The Holos
+command line interface is the primary method you'll use to manage your platform.
+Holos uses CUE to provide a unified configuration model of the platform.  This
+unified configuration is built up from components packaged with Helm, Kustomize,
+CUE, or any other tool that can produce Kubernetes resource manifests as output.
+
+This process can be thought of as a data **rendering pipeline**.  The key
+concept is that Holos will always produce fully rendered output, but delegates
+the _application_ of the configuration to other tools like kubectl apply,
+ArgoCD, or Flux.

+# Glossary
+
+This page describes the terms used within the context of Holos.
+
+## Platform
+
+In Holos, a Platform is a comprehensive environment configured using the
+Kubernetes resource model. It extends beyond traditional Kubernetes
+functionality by integrating cloud resources through Crossplane, allowing for a
+unified management approach across both Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure. A
+Platform typically consists of one Management Cluster, which handles control and
+secret management, and one or more Workload Clusters, where application
+workloads are deployed and run. This architecture enables a consistent and
+scalable approach to managing diverse resources and services within the
+cloud-native ecosystem.
+
+## Management Cluster
+
+In the context of Holos, a Management Cluster is a special Kubernetes cluster
+that hosts Kubernetes controllers.  For example, cert-manager, Cluster api, and
+Crossplane.  A management cluster manages a single platform.  The primary
+function of this cluster is to securely store and manage secrets, ensuring the
+secure handling of sensitive information such as credentials, API keys, and
+other confidential data. The Management Cluster serves as a centralized and
+secure control plane for the platform, facilitating the orchestration and
+management of other components.
+
+## Workload Cluster
+
+In Holos, a Workload Cluster is a Kubernetes cluster designed to host and run
+application workloads. Unlike the Management Cluster, which focuses on control
+and secret management, Workload Clusters are dedicated to executing the actual
+applications and services. These clusters can vary in size and configuration
+based on the specific needs of the applications they support. Workload Clusters
+leverage Kubernetes' orchestration capabilities to manage the deployment,
+scaling, and operation of containerized applications, providing a flexible and
+scalable environment for running production workloads within the platform.
+
+## Platform Form
+
+In Holos, a Platform Form is a customizable web form defined by JSON data. Each
+platform within Holos has a unique Platform Form, which serves as an interface
+for configuring and managing the platform's settings and resources. Platform
+engineers can customize the Platform Form by modifying the underlying CUE
+(Configuration Unified Engine) code, allowing for tailored configurations that
+meet specific requirements. This flexibility enables platform engineers to
+create a user-friendly and specific interface for managing the platform's
+components and operations.
+
+## Platform Model
+
+In Holos, the Platform Model represents the collection of values submitted
+through the Platform Form. It encapsulates the specific configuration details
+and settings defined by the platform engineers, serving as the blueprint for the
+platform's setup and operation. The Platform Model is essential for translating
+the customized options and parameters from the Platform Form into actionable
+configurations within the Holos ecosystem, ensuring that the platform operates
+according to the specified requirements and guidelines.
+
+## Secret Store
+
+In Holos, a SecretStore is a repository for securely storing and managing
+sensitive data such as passwords, API keys, and other confidential information.
+It is compatible with any secret store supported by the External Secrets
+Operator. By default, the management cluster serves as the SecretStore to
+minimize dependencies and simplify the architecture. This setup ensures that
+secrets are managed in a secure and centralized manner, aligning with the
+overall security framework of the platform.
+
+## Service Mesh
+
+In Holos, a Service Mesh is a dedicated infrastructure layer for managing,
+observing, and securing service-to-service communications within a microservices
+architecture. It typically includes features such as load balancing, traffic
+routing, service discovery, and security policies like mutual TLS and access
+control. The Service Mesh abstracts these functionalities away from the
+application code, providing a centralized control plane for managing the
+interactions between microservices. This facilitates better observability,
+resilience, and security in complex, distributed environments.
+
+## Zero Trust
+
+In the context of Holos and broader security practices, Zero Trust is a security
+model that assumes no implicit trust is granted to any user, system, or
+component inside or outside the network. Instead, every request for access is
+treated as potentially malicious, and verification is required at every stage.
+This model enforces strict identity verification, continuous monitoring, and
+least-privilege access policies.

+# Try Holos Locally
+
+This guide walks through the process of building and managing a software
+development platform with Holos.  The k3d platform built in this guide is a
+slimmed down version of the larger, more holistic, Holos reference platform.
+
+Holos is different from existing tools in a few important ways.
+
+ 1. Holos provides a **unified configuration model** purpose built to improve on
+ unmodified Helm charts, Kustomize bases, or anything else that produces
+ structured configuration data.
+ 2. Holos all but **eliminates the need to template yaml**, a common source of
+ frustration and errors in production.
+ 3. Holos platforms are **composable** and have breadth.  The toolchain and
+ techniques scale down to one machine and up to multiple clusters across
+ multiple regions.
+ 4. The unified configuration model is well suited to a **Zero Trust security
+ model**.  Platform wide policy configuration is easier to manage with Holos.
+
+---
+
+This guide assumes commands are run locally.  Capitalized terms have specific
+definitions described in the [Glossary](/docs/glossary).
+
+## What you'll need {#Requirements}
+
+You'll need the following tools installed to complete this guide.
+
+1. [holos](/docs/install) - to build the platform.
+2. [helm](https://helm.sh/docs/intro/install/) - to render Holos components that wrap upstream Helm charts.
+3. [k3d](https://k3d.io/#installation) - to provide a k8s api server.
+4. [OrbStack](https://docs.orbstack.dev/install) or [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) - to use k3d.
+5. [kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/) - to interact with the k8s api server.
+6. [mkcert](https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert?tab=readme-ov-file#installation) - to make trusted TLS certificates.
+7. [jq](https://jqlang.github.io/jq/download/) - to fiddle with JSON output.
+
+:::note
+
+Registering an account **is recommended** to try out proper authentication and
+authorization in Holos, but you can complete this guide without signing up.
+
+:::
+
+## Goal {#Goal}
+
+By the end of this guide you'll have built the foundation of a software
+development platform.  The foundation provides Zero Trust security by
+holistically integrating off-the-shelf open source software.
+
+  1. Istio is configured to authenticate and authorize requests using an OIDC
+  ID-Token issued by ZITADEL before requests reach backend services.
+  2. The platform provides single sign-on and role based access control for all
+  services running on the platform.
+
+This guide strives to keep things neat and tidy.  All of the resources are
+located in one k3d cluster and one local Git repository.  If you want to clean
+up at any point, do so with:
+
+```bash
+k3d cluster delete workload
+rm -rf holos-k3d
+```
+
+## Sign In or Out {#Sign-In}
+
+Holos provides integrated authentication and authorization which we'll use in
+this guide to protect a service.  We recommend registering an account to see
+this in action.  Registration also enables you to explore the customizable web
+form that simplifies complex configuration.
+
+If you opt-out, the platform will be configured to use a fake identity in place
+of real id tokens.

+
+### Push the Platform Form
+
+Each Holos platform has a Platform Form used to submit top level, platform-wide
+configuration values.  The purpose of the form is to validate configuration
+values and simplify complicated configurations and integrations.
+
+<Tabs groupId="registration">
+  <TabItem value="registered" label="Signed In">
+    Push the Platform Form to publish it.  Browse to the printed URL to view the
+    form.

+
+### Update the Platform Model {#Platform-Model}
+
+Holos needs initial, top level configuration values to render the platform.  The
+Platform Model is the term we use for these values.  In this section you will
+configure role based access control by way of updating the Platform Model.
+
+In the k3d platform you're building now, role based access control is
+implemented by asserting against the oidc id token subject.  Update the form
+with the `sub` claim value from your id token.  This will ensure only you have
+access to platform services.
+
+<Tabs groupId="registration">
+  <TabItem value="registered" label="Signed In">
+    Copy and paste the `sub` value into your Platform Form's Subject field.
+
+    ```bash
+    holos login --print-claims --log-level=error | jq -r .sub
+    ```
+
+    After pasting the `sub` value, click Submit on the form.
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="unregistered" label="Signed Out">
+    You don't have an id token when you're signed out, so there's nothing for
+    you to do in this step.
+
+    ```bash
+    # holos login --print-claims --log-level=error | jq -r .sub
+    ```
+
+    The platform will be configured to assert against the User-Agent header
+    instead.
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+### Pull the Platform Model {#Pull-the-Platform-Model}
+
+The Platform Model needs to be pulled into the local Git repository after the
+form has been submitted. Next, we'll run `holos render` which operates
+exclusively on local files.
+
+Holos stores the Platform Model in the `platform.config.json` file. Holos
+provides this file as input to CUE when rendering the platform.  This file is
+intended to be added to version control.
+
+<Tabs groupId="registration">
+  <TabItem value="registered" label="Signed In">
+    Pull the updated Platform Model into the local repository.
+
+    ```bash
+    holos pull platform model .

+    ```
+
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="unregistered" label="Signed Out">

+    # git add platform.config.json
+    # git commit -m "Add platform model"
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+## Render the Platform {#Render-the-Platform}
+
+Holos has everything necessary to render the platform once the
+`platform.config.json` file and the code from `holos generate` are in the
+current directory.
+
+Rendering a platform is the process of iterating over each platform component
+and rendering it into plain yaml. Holos does not apply the resulting manifests.
+Other tools like kubectl, ArgoCD, or Flux are responsible for applying the
+manifests.
+
+```bash
+holos render platform ./platform
+```
+
+The render command writes the manifest files to the `deploy/` directory.  Commit
+the files so they can be applied via GitOps later.
+
+```bash
+git add deploy
+git commit -m "holos render platform ./platform"
+```
+
+:::info[Don't blink, this is where Holos builds the platform]
+
+It usually takes no more than a few seconds.
+
+Rendering the holos reference platform currently results in about 500K lines of
+yaml.  In contrast, roughly 80K lines are produced by this slimmed down k3d
+platform.
+
+We mention this because the scale doesn't matter as much as it does with other
+tools.  Manage millions of lines of configuration with Holos the same way this
+guide manages thousands.  This is made possible by the unique way CUE unifies
+all configuration into one single model.
+
+:::
+
+## Configure DNS {#DNS}
+
+Configure your machine to resolve `*.holos.localhost` to your loopback
+interface.  This is necessary for requests to reach the workload cluster.
+
+<Tabs>
+  <TabItem value="macos" label="macOS" default>
+  Cache sudo credentials.
+
+  Admin access is necessary to setup a local dnsmasq instance and configure
+  macOS's DNS resolver.
+
+  ```bash
+  sudo -v
+  ```
+
+  Resolve *.holos.localhost DNS queries to 127.0.0.1.

+  <TabItem value="linux" label="Linux">
+    [NSS-myhostname](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/nss-myhostname.8.html)
+    ships with many Linux distributions and should resolve *.localhost
+    automatically to 127.0.0.1.
+
+    Otherwise it is installable with:
+
+    ```bash
+    sudo apt install libnss-myhostname
+    ```

+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+
+## Create the Cluster {#Create-Cluster}
+
+The Workload Cluster is where your applications and services will be deployed.
+In production this is usually an EKS, GKE, or AKS cluster.
+
+:::tip
+
+Holos supports all compliant Kubernetes clusters. Holos was developed and tested
+on GKE, EKS, Talos, k3s, and Kubeadm clusters.
+
+:::
+
+<Tabs>
+  <TabItem value="evaluate" label="Try Holos" default>
+  Use this command when exploring Holos.
+
+  ```bash
+  k3d cluster create workload \

+    --k3s-arg "--disable=traefik@server:0"
+  ```
+
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="develop" label="Develop Holos">
+  Use this command when developing Holos.
+
+  ```bash

+  ```bash
+  k3d cluster create workload \
+    --registry-use k3d-registry.holos.localhost:5100 \
+    --port "443:443@loadbalancer" \
+    --k3s-arg "--disable=traefik@server:0"
+  ```
+
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+Traefik is disabled because Istio provides the same functionality.
+
+## Apply the Platform Components {#Apply-Platform-Components}
+
+Use `kubectl` to apply each platform component.  In production, it's common to
+fully automate this process with ArgoCD, but we use `kubectl` to the same
+effect.
+
+### Local CA {#Local-CA}
+
+Holos platforms use cert manager to issue tls certificates.  The browser and
+tools we're using need to trust these certificates to work together.
+
+Admin access is necessary for `mkcert` to manage the certificate into your trust
+stores.
+
+```bash
+sudo -v
+```
+
+Manage the local CA and copy the CA key to the workload cluster so that cert
+manager can manage trusted certificates.
+
+```bash
+bash ./scripts/local-ca
+```
+
+:::warning
+
+Take care to run the local-ca script each time you create the workload cluster
+so that Certificates are issued correctly.
+
+:::
+
+
+### Service Mesh
+
+The platform service mesh provides an ingress gateway and connectivity useful
+for observability, reliability, and security.
+
+#### Namespaces
+
+With Holos, components are automatically added to the namespaces component,
+useful for centrally managed policies.
+
+```bash
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f ./deploy/clusters/workload/components/namespaces
+```
+
+#### Custom Resource Definitions
+
+```bash
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f ./deploy/clusters/workload/components/gateway-api
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f ./deploy/clusters/workload/components/istio-base
+```
+
+#### Cert Manager {#cert-manager}
+
+Apply the cert-manager controller.
+
+```bash
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f ./deploy/clusters/workload/components/cert-manager
+```
+
+Apply the ClusterIssuer which issues Certificate resources using the local
+certificate authority.
+
+```bash
+kubectl -n cert-manager wait pod -l app.kubernetes.io/component=webhook --for=condition=Ready
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f deploy/clusters/workload/components/local-ca
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f deploy/clusters/workload/components/certificates
+kubectl -n istio-gateways wait certificate httpbin.holos.localhost --for=condition=Ready
+```
+
+:::warning
+
+The certificate will time out before becoming ready if the [local-ca](#Local-CA)
+script was not run after the cluster was created.
+
+:::
+
+#### Istio {#Istio}
+
+Istio implements the Service Mesh.
+
+```bash
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f ./deploy/clusters/workload/components/istio-cni
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f ./deploy/clusters/workload/components/istiod
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f ./deploy/clusters/workload/components/gateway
+```
+
+Verify the Gateway is programmed and the listeners have been accepted:
+
+```bash
+kubectl -n istio-gateways wait gateway default --for=condition=Accepted
+```
+
+#### httpbin {#httpbin}
+
+httpbin is a simple backend service useful for end-to-end testing.
+
+```bash
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f deploy/clusters/workload/components/httpbin-backend
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f deploy/clusters/workload/components/httpbin-routes
+kubectl -n holos-system wait pod -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=httpbin --for=condition=Ready
+```
+
+:::info
+
+Browse to [https://httpbin.holos.localhost/](https://httpbin.holos.localhost/)
+to verify end to end connectivity.  You should see the httpbin index page.
+
+:::
+
+### Authenticating Proxy
+
+The auth proxy is responsible for authenticating browser requests, handling the
+oidc authentication flow, and providing a signed id token to the rest of the
+services in the mesh.
+
+#### Cookie Secret
+
+The auth proxy stores session information in an encrypted cookie.  Generate a
+random cookie encryption Secret and apply.
+
+```bash
+LC_ALL=C tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 </dev/urandom \
+  | head -c 32 \
+  | kubectl create secret generic "authproxy" \
+    --from-file=cookiesecret=/dev/stdin \
+    --dry-run=client -o yaml \
+  | kubectl apply -n istio-gateways -f-
+```
+
+#### Deployment
+
+The auth proxy Deployment receives requests from web browsers and responds with
+an authentication decision.
+
+```bash
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f deploy/clusters/workload/components/authproxy
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f deploy/clusters/workload/components/authroutes

+### Authorization Policy
+
+Configure authorization policies using attributes of the authenticated request.

+    2. Note the `x-oidc-id-token` header is not sent by your browser but is
+    received by the backend service.
+        - This design reduces the risk of exposing id tokens in the browser.
+        - Browser request size remains constant as more claims are added to id
+        tokens.

+
+## Summary
+
+Thank you for taking the time to try out Holos.  In this guide, you built the
+foundation of a software development platform that:
+
+ 1. Provides a unified configuration model with CUE that
+    - Supports unmodified Helm Charts, Kustomize Kustomizations, plain YAML.
+    - Provides a web form to pass top level parameters.
+ 2. Reduces errors by eliminating the need to template unstructured text.
+ 3. Is composable and scales down to a local machine.
+ 4. Provides an way to safely configure broad authentication and authorization
+ policy.
+
+## Next Steps
+
+Dive deeper with the following resources that build on the foundation you have now.
+
+ 1. Explore the [Rendering Process](/docs/design/rendering) in Holos.
+ 2. Dive deeper into the [Platform Manifests](./platform-manifests) rendered in this guide.
+ 3. Deploy [ArgoCD](/docs/guides/argocd) onto the foundation you built.
+ 4. Deploy [Backstage](/docs/guides/backstage) as a portal to the integrated platform components.
+
+## Clean-Up
+
+If you'd like to clean up the resources you created in this guide, remove them
+with:
+
+```bash
+k3d cluster delete workload
+rm -rf holos-k3d
+```

+# Platform Manifests
+
+This document provides an example of how Holos uses CUE and Helm to unify and
+render the platform configuration.  It refers to the manifests rendered in the
+[Try Holos Locally](/docs/guides/try-holos/) guide.
+
+Take a moment to review the manifests `holos` rendered to build the platform.
+
+### ArgoCD Application
+
+Note the Git URL in the Platform Model is used to derive the ArgoCD
+`Application` resource for all of the platform components.
+
+```yaml
+# deploy/clusters/workload/gitops/namespaces.application.gen.yaml
+apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Application
+metadata:
+  name: namespaces
+  namespace: argocd
+spec:
+  destination:
+    server: https://kubernetes.default.svc
+  project: default
+  source:
+    # highlight-next-line

+    # highlight-next-line
+    repoURL: https://github.com/holos-run/holos-k3d.git
+    # highlight-next-line
+    targetRevision: HEAD
+```
+
+One ArgoCD `Application` resource is produced for each Holos component by
+default.  The CUE definition which produces the rendered output is defined in
+`buildplan.cue` around line 222.
+
+:::tip
+
+Note how CUE does not use error-prone text templates, the language is well
+specified and typed which reduces errors when unifying the configuration with
+the Platform Model in the following `#Argo` definition.
+
+:::
+
+```cue
+// buildplan.cue
+
+// #Argo represents an argocd Application resource for each component, written
+// using the #HolosComponent.deployFiles field.
+#Argo: {
+	ComponentName: string
+
+	Application: app.#Application & {
+		metadata: name:      ComponentName
+		metadata: namespace: "argocd"
+		spec: {

+
+	// deployFiles represents the output files to write along side the component.
+	deployFiles: "clusters/\(_ClusterName)/gitops/\(ComponentName).application.gen.yaml": yaml.Marshal(Application)
+}

+### Helm Chart
+

+plan that defines the helm chart to use along with the values to provide looks
+like the following.

+💸 Building a software development platform is **time consuming and expensive**.  Spend more time building features for your customers and less time managing your development platform.
+
+💥 Already have a platform?  Add new features and services to your platform easily with Holos.
+
+🧐 Holos is a platform builder. It builds a hollistic software development platform composed of best-of-breed cloud native open source projects.  Holos is also a tool to make it easier to manage cloud infrastructure by providing a typed alternative to yaml templates.
+
+## Features
+
+Holos was built to solve two main problems:
+
+ 1. Building a platform usually takes 3 engineers 6-9 months of effort.  Holos provides a reference platform that enables you to deploy and customize your platform in a fraction of the time.
+ 2. Configuration changes often cause outages.  Existing tools like Helm make it difficult to understand the impact a configuration change will have.  Holos provides a unique, unified configuration model powered by CUE that makes it safer and easier to roll out configuration changes.
+
+A core principle of Holos is that organizations gain value from owning the the platform they build on.  Avoid vendor lock-in, future price hikes, and expensive licensing changes by building on a solid foundation of open source, cloud native computing foundation backed projects.
+
+The following features are built into the Holos reference platform.

+# Local Development
+
+This document captures notes on locally developing Holos.
+
+Follow the steps in [Try Holos Locally](/docs/guides/try-holos), but take care
+to select `Develop` tabs when creating the k3d cluster so you have a local
+registry to push to.
+
+## Apply Resources
+
+Work will be done in the `dev-holos` namespace.
+
+Apply the infrastructure, which should persist when tilt is started / stopped.
+
+```bash
+kubectl apply --server-side=true -f ./hack/tilt/k8s/dev-holos-infra
+```
+
+This creates the PostgresCluster, service account, etc...
+
+## Start tilt
+
+Tilt will build the go executable, build the container, then push it to the
+local repository associated with k3d.
+
+```bash
+./hack/tilt/bin/tilt up
+```

+# Quickstart Guide
+
+This guide shows you the basics of how Holos.  You'll deploy a Helm chart to
+Kubernetes using a Component to see how Holos makes the process safer, easier,
+and more consistent.
+
+## What you'll need {#Requirements}
+
+You'll need the following tools installed to complete this guide.
+
+1. [holos](/docs/install) - to build the platform.
+2. [helm](https://helm.sh/docs/intro/install/) - to render Holos components that wrap upstream Helm charts.
+3. [k3d](https://k3d.io/#installation) - to provide a Kubernetes API server.
+4. [OrbStack](https://docs.orbstack.dev/install) or [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) - to use k3d.
+5. [kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/) - to interact with the k8s api server.
+
+## Install Holos
+
+Install Holos with the following command or other methods listed on the
+[Installation](/docs/install/) page.
+
+```bash
+go install github.com/holos-run/holos/cmd/holos@latest
+```
+
+## Git repository
+
+Start by initializing an empty Git repository.  Holos is designed to operate
+against local files in a Git repository.
+
+<Tabs groupId="init">
+  <TabItem value="command" label="Command">
+    ```bash
+    mkdir holos-quickstart
+    cd holos-quickstart
+    git init
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="output" label="Output">
+    ```txt
+    Initialized empty Git repository in /holos-quickstart/.git/
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+This guide assumes commands are run from the root directory of this Git
+repository unless otherwise stated.
+
+## Generate the Platform {#Generate-Platform}
+
+Generate the Platform code in the repository root.  A Platform refers to all of
+the software and services integrated together to provide your organization's
+software development platform.  In this guide the platform will contain a single
+Component to demonstrate how the concepts fit together.
+
+```bash
+holos generate platform quickstart
+```
+
+Commit the generated platform config to the repository.
+
+```bash
+git add .
+git commit -m "holos generate platform quickstart - $(holos --version)"
+```
+
+## Create a Component
+
+The platform you generated is empty.  Rendering the platform succeeds, but does
+nothing because there are no Components listed in the Platform spec:
+
+```cue
+package holos
+
+import core "github.com/holos-run/holos/api/core/v1alpha3"
+
+core.#Platform & {
+	metadata: name: "quickstart"
+}
+```
+
+<Tabs groupId="render">
+  <TabItem value="command" label="Command">
+    ```bash
+    holos render platform ./platform
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="output" label="Output">
+    ```bash
+    # No output is produced, the Platform contains no Components.
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+Generate the CUE code definition for a Component that wraps the podinfo Helm
+chart.
+
+<Tabs groupId="gen-podinfo">
+  <TabItem value="command" label="Command">
+    ```bash
+    mkdir -p components
+    (cd components && holos generate component helm podinfo)
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="output" label="Output">
+    ```txt
+    generated component
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+The HelmChart Component is defined in the `components/podinfo/podinfo.cue` file, for example:
+
+```cue
+package holos
+
+// Produce a helm chart build plan.
+(#Helm & Chart).Output
+
+let Chart = {
+	Name:      "podinfo"
+	Version:   "6.6.2"
+	Namespace: "default"
+
+	Repo: name: "podinfo"
+	Repo: url:  "https://stefanprodan.github.io/podinfo"
+
+	Values: {}
+}
+```
+
+In this example we're providing the minimal information about the Helm chart we
+want to manage in this Component.  The name, version, Kubernetes namespace to
+deploy into, and the chart repository location.
+
+This chart deploys cleanly with no values provided, but we include an empty
+struct to illustrate how Holos improves the consistency and safety of Helm
+values by taking advantage the strong type checking in CUE.  Shared values, such
+as the organization domain name, can safely be passed to all Components across
+all clusters in the Platform.
+
+## Render the Component
+
+Individual components can be rendered without needing to be included in a
+Platform spec, useful when developing a new component.
+
+<Tabs groupId="render-podinfo">
+  <TabItem value="command" label="Command">
+    ```bash
+    holos render component ./components/podinfo --cluster-name=default
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="output" label="Output">
+    ```txt
+    cached
+    rendered podinfo
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+First, the command caches the helm chart locally to speed up subsequent
+renderings.  Then the command executes helm to produce the output which is
+written into the deploy directory.
+
+<Tabs groupId="tree-podinfo">
+  <TabItem value="command" label="Command">
+    ```bash
+    tree deploy
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="output" label="Output">
+    ```txt
+    deploy
+    └── clusters
+        └── default
+            └── components
+                └── podinfo
+                    └── podinfo.gen.yaml
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+The component is deployed to one cluster named default. The same component is
+often deployed to multiple clusters, for example east and west for reliability.
+
+This example is equivalent to executing `helm template` on the chart.
+
+## Mix in an ArgoCD Application
+
+So far we've seen how Holos is a convenient wrapper around Helm, but we haven't
+yet seen how it makes it easier to consistently and safely manage all of the
+software that goes into a platform.  We'll mix in an ArgoCD
+[Application][application] resource to manage the podinfo Component with GitOps.
+We'll define this configuration in a way that is automatically and consistently
+re-used across all Components added to the Platform in the future, including
+Components which are not Helm charts.
+
+Create a new file named `argocd.cue` in the root of your git repository with the
+following contents:
+
+<Tabs groupId="argocd-config">
+  <TabItem value="command" label="File: argocd.cue">
+    ```cue
+    package holos
+
+    #ArgoConfig: {
+      Enabled: true
+      RepoURL: "https://example.com/holos-quickstart.git"
+    }
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="note" label="Note">
+    If you plan to apply the rendered output to a real cluster, change the RepoURL
+    to the url of the git repository you created in this guide.  It is sufficient to
+    keep the example URL if you're getting a feel for Holos and inspecting the
+    rendered output without applying it to a live cluster.
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+With this file in place, render the component again.
+
+<Tabs groupId="render-podinfo-argocd">
+  <TabItem value="command" label="Command">
+    ```bash
+    holos render component ./components/podinfo --cluster-name=default
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="output" label="Output">
+    ```txt
+    wrote deploy file
+    rendered gitops/podinfo
+    rendered podinfo
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+The render command uses the cached chart this time around.  Then, the helm
+template output is rendered along with an additional ArgoCD Application resource
+for GitOps in the `podinfo.application.gen.yaml` file.
+
+<Tabs groupId="tree-podinfo-argocd">
+  <TabItem value="command" label="Command">
+    ```bash
+    tree deploy
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="output" label="Output">
+    ```txt
+    deploy
+    └── clusters
+        └── default
+            ├── components
+            │   └── podinfo
+            │       └── podinfo.gen.yaml
+            └── gitops
+                └── podinfo.application.gen.yaml
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+The Application resource looks like:
+
+<Tabs groupId="podinfo-application">
+  <TabItem value="file" label="podinfo.application.gen.yaml">
+    ```yaml
+    apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
+    kind: Application
+    metadata:
+      name: podinfo
+      namespace: argocd
+    spec:
+      destination:
+        server: https://kubernetes.default.svc
+      project: default
+      source:
+        path: ./deploy/clusters/default/components/podinfo
+        repoURL: https://example.com/holos-quickstart.git
+        targetRevision: main
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+:::tip
+
+Holos will generate a similar Application resource for all additional Components
+added to your Platform.
+
+:::
+
+In this section we learned how Holos provides a simple way to add an ArgoCD
+Application resource for the podinfo Component.  Holos further provides
+consistency by creating a similar Application resource for every subsequent
+Component added to the platform in the future, all by defining the configuration
+of ArgoCD in a single place.
