ArgoCD is a pretty popular tool for managing K8s deployments. ArgoCD will let you specify a helm repository & chart and take the work & uncertainty out of managing deployed apps.

To use coder's helm chart as you are currently providing it (i.e. the coder_helm_<VERSION>.tgz artifact on the release), I would need to manually download and commit that file to my gitops repo to get it deployed. This largely defeats the purpose of ArgoCD.

If, however, the newer coder (AFAICT you are calling it Coder OSS/Coder Enterprise V2?) chart gets published to a publicly available helm repository, then it's something I can point to from, e.g., ArgoCD's helm chart controller or even a kustomize chart-inflater.

Would this be possible?
For now I have a workaround... Since I'm mostly evaluating Coder for now anyhow I just went ahead and published my own helm-charts repo for this purpose (https://jskrzypek.github.io/helm-charts/index.yaml) I did this by just manually downloading the chart from your releases and running helm repo index . on the folder. I guess that's technically more steps, but hopefully you guys will publish it yourselves at some point...
