Is there a way to deploy Maesh without using Helm especially for those who are running Kubernetes cluster in a private environment that is isolated from the Internet? I'm afraid that from the documentation itself, Helm is one of the prerequisites which I cannot comply anymore.
It is possible to deploy Maesh manually, but we use helm mainly for the hooks and templating.
If you create the yaml with helm template, you can create the hooks manually first, and then once those are run, you can create the rest of the objects.
